How this compares
100 complaints is 2.3 times fewer than the median 2019 model on this site and 2.0 times fewer than the median 2019 sedan. Among the 4 Fiesta model years here it ranks 4th for complaints. Counts follow sales volume as much as reliability, so a truck that sells 700,000 a year draws more reports than a sedan that sells 200,000.
Complaints filed by year
34 complaints came in 2025, 4.9 times the year before. Owners file in waves when a problem gets press or an investigation, so a spike measures attention as much as failures.
