Used-car engine and transmission complaints, by model year

For each model year: the share of NHTSA owner complaints that are about the engine, transmission or fuel system, complaints by component, what owners reported, and the years either side. Same analysis as the VIN report; the report adds the car's own engine, all the quotes and its recall status.
