NHTSA's VIN data lists no trims for the 2025 XM, so these are the versions EPA tested, by its names. Recalls and complaints cover the whole model year: whether a recall applies to a car depends on its VIN, on NHTSA's recall lookup.
Problems owners report
Owners have filed 2 complaints with NHTSA about the 2025 XM. These are unverified owner reports, counted by the part of the car they name; one complaint can name several parts. Counts aren't adjusted for how many were sold, so they don't show how reliable a car is.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Electrical system | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| Forward collision avoidance | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
