Is 36 complaints a lot? They were filed between 2014 and 2026, roughly 3 a year, which is fewer than the typical model in this dataset.

How does it compare with other years? The 2014 has 36 complaints on file, more than the 2013 (10). That is the most of the 3 model years of the Hyundai Equus we cover. Older model years have had longer to collect complaints.
