What the record shows

The 2022 Ford Explorer is the 46th model year of a nameplate NHTSA records from 1977 to 2027.

The federal record holds 264 owner complaints, 24 safety recalls, 1 investigation and 224 service bulletins for it.

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.
