NO ELEVATED SIGNAL
17%
25 of 143 relevant owner complaints are about the engine, transmission or fuel system
No elevated drivetrain complaint concentration in the available NHTSA records for the 2014 Toyota Sienna. Engine, transmission and fuel system account for 17% of relevant complaints.
Better than 90% of the 1,230 model years we track (2010–2023).
Excludes 20 airbag, lighting and seat-belt recall complaints that would otherwise mask the signal (unadjusted: 15%).
Manufacturers fix things mid-generation. A bad year next to a clean one is common; the fix usually arrived in between.
