Highest complaint totals
- 2004 Pontiac Gto - 233 complaints in its first 8 years (245 to date)
- 2006 Pontiac Gto - 213 complaints in its first 8 years (216 to date)
- 2005 Pontiac Gto - 138 complaints in its first 8 years (154 to date)
Ranked on distinct complaints filed within eight years of the model year, so old and new years get the same exposure window. Not adjusted for sales volume; a best-selling year files more complaints at the same failure rate.
Lowest totals among mature years
- 2005 Pontiac Gto - 138 complaints in its first 8 years (154 to date)
- 2006 Pontiac Gto - 213 complaints in its first 8 years (216 to date)
- 2004 Pontiac Gto - 233 complaints in its first 8 years (245 to date)
Same eight-year window, among model years old enough to have completed it and with at least 25 complaints in it. Model years before 1990 are excluded because the federal file begins in 1995. A low total is not proof of reliability.
