Complaints by model year
Newer model years have had less time on the road, so they naturally have fewer complaints. Compare a year against its neighbors rather than against brand-new models.

MCI D4505 recalls
Risk: The incorrect window glazing material may reduce the driver's visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: Beacons that do not provide proper illumination may be less visible to wheelchair lift users, increasing the risk of injury.
Risk: A high pressure fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source can increase the risk of a fire.
Risk: MDP circuit board failure can result in a fire or an unexpected vehicle shutdown, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire.
Risk: If the engine shuts down or loses power while the vehicle is in motion, this may increase the risk of a crash.
Risk: Inability to use the seat belt may increase the risk of injury in the event of a crash.
Risk: If the tag axle becomes misaligned with the front of the vehicle, the rear of the vehicle may strike other vehicles or pedestrians, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.
Risk: If the tempered glass roof hatch shatters, glass fragments may fall onto passengers, increasing the risk of an injury.
Risk: If the pipe develops a hole, during a regeneration cycle, hot exhaust gases may leak out, increasing the risk of a fire.
Risk: If the pipe fails and a diesel regeneration cycle occurs, the hot exhaust gases will increase the risk of a fire.
Risk: If the seatbelt anchorage assembly separates from the J-Bracket, the bus driver may not be properly restrained in the event of a crash increasing their risk of injury.
Risk: If the bracket separates from the axle housing, vehicle control may be affected, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: The incorrectly assembled fuse block may not protect the circuit and the connections may arc, increasing the risk of a fire.
Risk: Cracks in the hub may result in hub failure, which could cause a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: If the tie rod nuts are not properly torqued, the tie rod may not be adequately secured, resulting in a loss of vehicle control and increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: If the driveshaft escapes containment it can strike the trailing axle tie rod and components of the trailing axle locking system potentially causing the trailing axle steering and caster locking mechanisms to unlock. If this occurs, the driver may experience loss of steering control of the vehicle, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
Risk: If this occurs, the surrounding material may be damaged and will burn, increasing the risk of a fire.
Risk: If the headlights turn off while the vehicle is in operation, the driver's visibility may be reduced, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: Once electrically conductive, the material is capable of melting and burning, increasing the risk of a fire.
Risk: During a regeneration process to clean exhaust emissions, if the bellows pipe has failed, the hot exhaust gases may not be contained, resulting in a fire.
Risk: If this occurs, surrounding material may be damaged and will burn, increasing the risk of a fire.
Risk: The entrance door will close without warning, increasing the risk of personal injury to people entering or exiting the bus.
Risk: This corrosion may create a short circuit between the power stud and the alternator body, which in turn could result in burning of the power stud or the power cable end. This could increase the risk of a fire. Additionally, the vehicle battery could discharge which could cause the vehicle to stall.
Risk: If the driver is slow to react during this esc intervention, the vehicle may deviate from the intended line of travel, increasing the risk of a crash.
