Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.
Federal data positions the 2014 model year within a steady improvement trajectory, as complaints declined from sixteen in 2011 and eleven in 2012 down to just four, while recalls stabilized at one—half the volume seen in the first two years of this generation. Technical service bulletins similarly trended downward to 291 from the 350-plus range recorded annually between 2011 and 2013, suggesting the platform’s initial teething issues were largely resolved by this point in the lifecycle. Although 2015 would see complaints drop to zero before a spike to eight in 2016, the 2014 model represents a low-water mark for reported problems, with zero fire complaints and only one crash-related entry among the four total complaints spanning engine, cooling, structure, and seats. The data does not specify root causes for these scattered issues, which reflect minimal volume. Given its position on the downslope of the complaint and TSB curves alongside stable single-recall exposure, 2014 stands out as a comparatively sound year to buy within this generation.
