Factory maintenance schedule OEM · verified

Normal service, condensed from the factory interval matrix.

Under the factory schedule, replace the engine oil and filter every 10,000 mi; coolant at 150,000 mi. The big-interval services (at 150,000 mi for coolant, and the transmission fluid) are the ones owners most often skip — on a lower-mileage example, assume the original fluids are still in it and check them first.

Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

The 2019 model recorded 42 federal complaints, a drop from 84 in 2018 but still above the 65 reported for 2017. Recalls numbered 7 in 2019, lower than the 9 in 2018 yet higher than the 5 in 2017, while investigations remained at one unit across both 2018 and 2019. The vehicle’s technical service bulletins rose to 149 in 2019, continuing an upward trajectory from 121 in 2017 and 146 in 2018. The most frequent complaint categories were Fuel/Propulsion System (9 complaints) and Fuel System, Gasoline (7 complaints), with crash‑related complaints at 7 and fire‑related complaints at 1. Accordingly, 2019 shows a modest improvement over the prior year but still carries a noticeable defect burden, making it a cautious rather than an optimal choice for purchase.
