Actually these articles can take a very small sample size and make it sound like all of the vehicles. The fact that we are only into the fourth year of the model also actually works against it not for it. It is a known fact that the first 1 or 2 years of any car produced can have bugs. This car is no different and there were several relatively small things that pooped up at first but seem to have completely disappeared. Since most of the data that they would be using would be from those early cars then it makes things seem way worse that they really are. If you dig deep enough you can find issues with any car so unless it happens to me I just let it ride. My own car has had zero issues and at 50K miles already I would think if they were going to happen they would have by now. I am not however going to go searching for what could go wrong.
