Is 59 complaints a lot? They were filed between 2016 and 2026, roughly 6 a year, which is fewer than the typical model in this dataset. We do not have sales figures for this model, so treat this as a rough volume, not a rate per car on the road. Popular, high-volume models naturally collect more complaints over time.

How does it compare with other years? The 2016 has 59 complaints on file, more than the 2015 (58). Of the 5 model years of the Buick Verano we cover, the 2013 has the most (107). Older model years have had longer to collect complaints.
