Is 15 complaints a lot? They were filed between 2018 and 2025, roughly 2 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 15 complaints on file, more than the 2015 (13) and more than the 2018 (11). Of the 6 model years of the MINI Countryman we cover, the 2025 has the most (17). Older model years have had longer to collect complaints.
