How this ranking is computed
Counts come directly from NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation records, aggregated per vehicle as described on our methodology page. Complaint counts are not normalized by sales volume — high-selling vehicles naturally accumulate more reports.
Based on NHTSA ODI data through August 2026. Complaints are consumer-reported and unverified. Updated August 28, 2026.
