Every Model X model year from 2016 to 2025, scored on reported failures weighted against how many were sold — and ranked against every other Large SUV of the same year.
Across 10 scored model years the Model X needs fixing more often than its class, though repairs are cheaper than average. The spread between years is what matters: 2024 is its strongest, 2016 its weakest.
Longer bar is better. Rank is against every Large SUV sold that same model year.

The line held a weak position through 2024, then moved to middling from 2025 on. The recent trend is upward. This 2025 car falls in a middling stretch.
All 12 systems, measured against the class average for each model year.
Every Model X model year is scored across 12 separate systems — engine, transmission, brakes, electrical, steering and suspension, structure, interior, and five more. Each system is compared against how often that same system fails on the average Large SUV of the same year, so a common failure is judged against how common it is everywhere else.
Across the last three model years (2023–2025), the trouble concentrates in one place: structure & body. That system draws issue reports more often than the same system on the average Large SUV of its year — which changes what you should be inspecting before you buy.
