How this compares
123 complaints is 1.9 times fewer than the median 2019 model on this site and 1.6 times fewer than the median 2019 sedan. Among the 6 Legacy model years here it ranks 3rd 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
25 complaints came in 2020, 1.9 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.
