1986 DODGE CONQUEST
This model year
What the record shows
The 1986 Dodge Conquest is a subcompact car, and the 3rd model year of a nameplate NHTSA records from 1984 to 1989.
The EPA rated two configurations: a single 2.6-litre four-cylinder engine, rear-wheel drive only, two transmissions and running on premium gasoline.
Combined fuel economy ranges from 18 to 19 mpg depending on which one you have.
No complaints, recalls, investigations or service bulletins are on the federal record for this model year.
Counts are reports, not rates. A complaint is something an owner chose to file; it is unverified and unadjusted for how many of these cars were sold, so the useful comparison is against other model years of the same car. Recalls and investigations carry more weight because a manufacturer or regulator acted on them.
Reading this report
Complaint counts are reports filed with NHTSA, not failure rates. A common model collects more of them than a rare one that breaks more often.
