Volkswagen ID.4 problems, by model year and system
1,005 complaints owners filed with NHTSA about the Volkswagen ID.4 2021–2026, and the 2 systems the record is deep on — electrical (505), body and structure (118). Each system has a page across the years; 4 model-year pages go deeper still. Every figure is a linked federal record; none is a failure rate or a verdict on one car.

Complaints owners filed with NHTSA naming each system, per model year; a bold count links the year’s own page on that system. Counts scale with sales and with time on the road; nothing here is a rate, and NHTSA’s headings are coarse (“Power Train” is the transmission and the driveline).

Electrical: 505 complaints across 6 model years, 50% of everything owners filed about the Volkswagen ID.4. A count, not a rate — it says nothing about how many were sold.
Which Volkswagen ID.4 year has the most complaints?
2023 (459), 2021 (335), 2022 (136). Older years have had longer to collect them; the year pages show each year's share by system.
