Emerging complaint spikes
Complete months in the latest six months with at least 10 complaints, at least twice the preceding 12-month average, and at least three square-root deviations above that average.
This is a descriptive screening rule, not a statistical defect finding. Publicity and reporting changes can increase submissions.
No complete months meet the spike thresholds for this selection.

PROBLEMS I HAVE HAD WITH MY 1996 ISUZU OASIS (SAME AS HONDA ODYSSEY). 1. THE CAR STALLS WHILE DRIVING. THIS PROBLEM HAS STARTED AT 120,000 MILES.
