THE FAILED COMPONENTS ARE THE PLASTIC BUTTONS MOUNTED ON THE DASH WINDSHIELD AND LIGHT CONTROLS. ALL THE BUTTONS ARE CRACKED AND SOME OF THEM HAVE FALLEN OFF AND CANNOT BE REATTACHED. ONCE A BUTTON FALLS OFF YOU CANNOT USE TURN ON THE WINDSHIELD WIPER. I CAN NOT BUY THE BUTTONS WITHOUT BUYING THE ENTIRE SWITCH ASSEMBLY.

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
