At a glance
- Next to other model years
- Complaints filed before 2015 aren't in the files this site reads, so the 2015 count runs short and isn't compared with the model years next to it.
- Top problem
- No problem dominates. The largest, brake wear, covers 39 of the 270 complaints (14%), and power steering loss is next with 24 (one complaint can fall under more than one problem, so these overlap). A quarter of the 30 owners who gave a mileage for brake wear saw it by about 9,000 miles, and half by about 25,000.
- Crash, fire and injury reports
- 36 of the 270 complaints (13%) report a crash, a fire or an injury. The typical vehicle on this site sits at 6%, so this one runs well above it. Counted separately (one report can carry more than one), 33 reports mention a crash, 3 mention a fire and 18 people were hurt. The reports record 1 death. The most crash reports, 15 of 33, fall under airbag.
- Recalls behind the top problems
- No recall on file is on the same system as brake wear. For those, the complaints are all there is.
- When owners filed
- Filings peaked in 2020 at 49 (full calendar years only). In 2025 there were 6. So far in 2026, 8 more have come in. Filings on record start in 2015.
