2027 Vehicles With the Most Owner-Reported Complaints
Ranked by the number of complaints owners and drivers have filed with NHTSA about that vehicle. A complaint is a report, not a confirmed defect, and a high count does not mean a vehicle is more likely to fail than one below it.
This page defaults to 2027, the most recent model year that has owner-reported complaints on file, rather than an all-time ranking. Across all years the list would be a list of old, high-selling cars: complaints accumulate for as long as a vehicle is on the road, so age alone decides the order.

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.
Complaints are reports submitted by owners and drivers to NHTSA. They are not verified and do not establish that a defect exists.
Recalls apply to specific vehicles, not to every vehicle of a model year. Check your VIN with NHTSA or your manufacturer's dealer to confirm whether a recall affects your vehicle.
