DATANot crash-tested
For the 2022 Chevrolet Spark, federal data offers only a partial safety picture. NHTSA has not published crash-test results for this model year, meaning it carries no star ratings and thus no computed Safety Index from our analysis. The available federal record indicates a low burden in other areas: there are zero recalls on file and only three owner-reported complaints. While this suggests minimal reported issues, the lack of comprehensive crash-test data means no definitive assessment of crashworthiness can be made from test scores.
The 2022 Chevrolet Spark was not crash-tested by NHTSA, carries zero recalls, and falls in the Light recall and complaint burden band, according to NHTSA federal safety data.

ANALYSISHow safe is the 2022 Chevrolet Spark?
The 2022 Chevrolet Spark has no recall actions on record with federal regulators, a notable data point for this model year. Owners have filed only three complaints with NHTSA. These complaints describe issues in disparate systems, including the air bags and exterior lighting, indicating no pattern of alleged defect. For this specific model year, NHTSA has not published crash-test results; therefore, no star ratings are available. No sibling years are on file for crash testing, so no adjacent data can offer guidance. The low volume of federal activity places the 2022 Spark in the Light burden band. This category reflects the breadth of federal documents, not crash-safety performance, and should not be considered a safety grade.
