What the record shows

The 2006 Freightliner Century is the 12th model year of a nameplate NHTSA records from 1995 to 2013.

The federal record holds 6 owner complaints, 4 safety recalls, 1 investigation and 109 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.
