Is 55 complaints a lot? They were filed between 2013 and 2022, roughly 7 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 2014 has 55 complaints on file, fewer than the 2013 (69) and more than the 2015 (12). Of the 4 model years of the Ford Focus Electric we cover, the 2013 has the most (69). Older model years have had longer to collect complaints.
