Honda body problems

Owners have filed 5,548 complaints with NHTSA about the body and structure on Honda vehicles — 4% of everything reported about the brand, across 64 models. The model that accounts for most of them is the Honda Odyssey, worst in 2005.

These are raw counts. A model that sold in millions appears near the top for that reason alone — the grade never compares one model with another.
