2023 Kia Carnival vs 2024 Kia Carnival
Two adjacent model years of the Kia Carnival, side by side. Every figure is a raw NHTSA/EPA count — not normalised by how many were sold.

How to read this
- A green check marks the lower raw count — fewer recorded issues, not a declared winner.
- Complaint totals are not normalised by vehicle population; a big-seller shows more of everything.
- Where a rating or EPA record is absent, that is missing data — not evidence of safety.
