Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

From owner reports, verbatim

ON MAY 3, 2021 WHILE DRIVING I-71 S IN OHIO DURING A HEAVY RAIN STORM, I EXPERIENCED A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE OF THE WINDSHIELD WIPER SYSTEM. I WAS TRAVELLING APPROX. 55 MPH. EITHER THE WIPER ARM (WHERE IT'S ATTACHED TO THE MOTOR) FAILED AND CAUSED THE BRACKET HOLDING THE MOTOR TO FAIL, OR THE BRACKET FAILED AND CAUSED THE WIPER ARMS TO FAIL. BOTH WIPERS, DRIVER'S AND PASSENGER SIDE FELL DOWN AWAY FROM THE WINDSHIELD. I WAS NOT ABLE TO SEE OUT OF THE WINDSHIELD AND HAD TO PULL OFF THE HIGHWAY.

Too few reports in this category for a page of its own — they appear in the full complaint list.

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
