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.

Spartan Furion recalls
Risk: If the cab is raised, such as during a repair, and the engine cooling fan is operating and comes apart, those in close proximity could be injured from the shattered parts.
Risk: This might cause the esc to perceive an over steering situation and therefore apply the front axle outer wheel service brake until the vehicle is perceived to be stable by the esc. These conditions could increase the risk of a crash.
Risk: If the inlet or outlet sections disconnect, hot exhaust gases can vent prior to exiting the tailpipe, creating the risk of combustion and a fire. If both clamps fail, there is a risk in some applications that the doc/dpf housing may detach completely, creating a road hazard.
Risk: The tell tale for the high beam may not illuminate when the high beam head lights are activated resulting in a potential distraction to oncoming traffic. Also, the abs lamp may not illuminate when a malfunction occurs therefore not alerting the driver. Both of these consequences could increase the risk of crash.
Risk: A fuel leak, in the presence of an ignition source, can result in a vehicle fire.
Risk: Inadvertent brake application to a selected wheel may cause the drive to try and over correct, possibly resulting in a vehicle crash.
