NHTSA files every complaint against a named sub-assembly, not just a system. This is the difference between knowing it was "the engine" and knowing which part of it — the list to hand a mechanic.
Odometer readings owners gave when they filed. About half of all complaints include one.
A spike years after the car went on sale usually means a part wearing out on schedule across the whole fleet — the kind of pattern no single owner can see from inside their own car.
An investigation is the step before a recall: the agency has seen enough complaints to look into a pattern itself. An open one means it thinks something may be wrong and nothing has been fixed yet.

A complaint is one owner's allegation. A recall is the point at which the manufacturer or a regulator agreed the defect is real and dangerous enough to fix for free — however old the car is.

NOTE: POLICE SEDANS AND TAXI CABS. THE REAR LOWER CONTROL ARM MAY CRACK AT THE REAR STABILIZER BAR ATTACHMENT AND EVENTUALLY COULD CAUSE THE LOWER CONTROL ARM TO FRACTURE COMPLETELY. THIS COULD RESULT IN LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL AND A CRASH WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING. CORRECTION: BOTH REAR LOWER CONTROL ARMS AND REAR STABILIZER BAR ATTACHMENTS WILL BE REPLACED ON AFFECTED VEHICLES.
Electrical
On certain vehicles, an electrical "ground out" condition between the 12 volt junction block and the metal inner fender skirt may cause a melted junction block, smoke and burned underhood wiring. This could result in a disabled vehicle or a vehicle fire. This condition can occur while the vehicle is in operation, or with the vehicle parked and the ignition in the "OFF" position. Correction: Junction blocks will be inspected for corrosion and a shielding insulator will be installed under the junction block where required.
Seats And Restraints

THE SECONDARY HOOD LATCHES ON THESE VEHICLES CAN CORRODE CAUSING A VERY HIGH LATCH RELEASE EFFORT AND POSSIBLY PREVENTING THE HOOD FROM LATCHING PROPERLY WHEN IT IS CLOSED. IF THE SECONDARY HOOD LATCH IS NOT PROPERLY ENGAGED THE HOOD COULD OPEN UNEXPECTEDLY. IF THIS WERE TO OCCUR WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, THE DRIVER'S FORWARD VISION WOULD BE IMPAIRED POSSIBLY RESULTING IN A VEHICLE CRASH. CORRECTION: A NEW SCONDARY HOOD LATCH ASSEMBLY WITH IMPROVED CORROSION RESISTANCE WILL BE INSTALLED ON AFFECTED VEHICLES.
