05 The Sonic in this site’s records
This site holds no spec record for the Sonic, so it measures no change between years.
What was queried: NHTSA’s model list for recalls carried no model under this line’s name for the makes we queried, so no recall lookup was made under it. The complete recall file added 7 of the 7 campaigns above, and every complaint count comes from the complete complaint file.
Counts of NHTSA records matched on NHTSA’s own model field; a complaint is one owner’s unverified report, and an empty year is an empty record, not a clean one (how this record is built). Check a trailer by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls before you buy.
