Raw totals and, when NHTSA production exposure is available, complaints per 100,000 produced. A zero means no owner reports in the current NHTSA data, not that the car is problem-free. Open a year to see what the evidence supports.
2 model years show zero owner complaints in the current NHTSA data. That can reflect low reporting volume, not a clean bill of health: 2020, 2021.
