Oldsmobile fuel system problems

Owners have filed 830 complaints with NHTSA about the fuel system on Oldsmobile vehicles — 6% of everything reported about the brand, across 19 models. The model that accounts for most of them is the Oldsmobile Aurora, worst in 1995.

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.
