  7. Complaints per 10,000 built: computed here from NHTSA's complaint count for the Highlander nameplate (165, of which 13 describe a crash, fire, injury or death) and the 187,545 vehicles NHTSA's own early-warning production reports place on it (2026 Q1). US data. No publisher states the rate itself.↩
