Jeep Wagoneer

Where it stands out against its peers

• Electrical system: more complaints than 97% of 2022 cars — 58% of its 197 complaints, where an ordinary 2022 car has 23%.
• Suspension: more complaints than 94% of 2022 cars — 8% of its 197 complaints, where an ordinary 2022 car has 2%.
• Seats: more complaints than 93% of 2022 cars — 5% of its 197 complaints, where an ordinary 2022 car has 1%.

Same model year only, at least 30 peer cars, zeros included. Every car has a worst part; this shows which, and how far from ordinary it is. A high share means more to check, not a verdict.
