Honda suspension problems

Owners have filed 3,347 complaints with NHTSA about the suspension on Honda vehicles — 3% of everything reported about the brand, across 56 models. The model that accounts for most of them is the Honda Civic, worst in 2007.

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.
