Mercedes A-Class: complaints by model year
Compare the federal record across A-Class model years. Raw complaint totals are useful context, but they are not adjusted for sales, mileage, or time on the road.

Ranked by total NHTSA complaints per model year (not adjusted for units sold). A zero means no owner reports in the current NHTSA data, not that the car is problem-free. "Severity" is a harm-weighted index of those complaints — higher means a greater share involved crashes, fires or injuries. Complaint-volume percentiles vs. segment peers are computed separately and appear on each year's page.
