Per car: a model year's complaints divided by the cars of that model year we have seen for sale (hybrid and other versions included), against the median compact car of the same model year. A year with no complaints on file is not judged. Owner complaints are unverified reports to NHTSA · 18 mention a crash, 5 a fire, 12 injuries, 0 deaths. TSBs are repair instructions the maker sent dealers, not recalls.
