This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.

Sometimes, the contact had to pump the brake pedal to stop the vehicle. The vehicle was driven to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the rear passenger side ABS sensor needed to be installed. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer and dealer were not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.
