Chevrolet tire problems

Owners have filed 4,038 complaints with NHTSA about the tires on Chevrolet vehicles — 100% of everything reported about the brand, across 137 models. The model that accounts for most of them is the Chevrolet Suburban, worst in 1999.

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.
