No phrase appears often enough in these complaints to describe them reliably.
Too few complaints record mileage for this model year to show a pattern. NHTSA largely stopped capturing mileage after 2021.
That is not a clean bill of health, and not a criticism of the agency: investigations open for many reasons and complaint volume is only one of them.
