Things to consider when insuring one
Fire-risk recall: park it outside until it’s fixed
NHTSA advises parking affected cars outside and away from buildings. A fire in an attached garage can become a home insurance claim as well as an auto one, so get the repair done first.
Owners reported 3 fires to NHTSA
Not every complaint is confirmed, but several fire reports are worth asking a mechanic about, and worth checking against open recalls.
27% rollover risk in a single-vehicle crash
Higher than most cars, typical of tall vehicles. Rollovers are among the most serious crashes.
Most owner complaints are about the electrical system
8 of 23 complaints to NHTSA mention it. Worth a look in a pre-purchase inspection.
