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 provided federal record traces earlier 911 generations from 1990 through 2014, showing generally low single-digit complaint counts punctuated by outliers such as 50 complaints in 2007 and 12 in 1995, with recalls and investigations remaining rare across that multi-decade span. The 2022 model sits at the current end of this arc with zero crash and fire complaints, yet its leading complaint category—fuel/propulsion—accounts for 6 filings, with single additional entries in exterior lighting/visibility, back-over prevention, and suspension; the data does not specify root causes for these entries. That concentration exceeds the total complaint volume recorded for the most recent prior year in the dataset, 2014 (2 complaints, 1 recall), yet arrives without the crash or fire complaints that would signal severe safety defects. For prospective buyers, this pattern indicates no documented crash or fire risk but signals an isolated concentration in fuel/propulsion complaints that the federal data does not explain. Consequently, 2022 is a reasonable year to buy, provided a pre-purchase inspection specifically scrutinizes the fuel and propulsion systems.
