General NotesModels and statistics marked with an asterisk (*) have very low sample sizes. These results, visible only to logged-in members, provide only a rough estimate of car reliability.Any result under 20 repair trips per 100 cars is likely a result of the small sample size, and should be expected to increase to 20 or so in future updates.
New models often start out with high repair rates, and then improve as the manufacturer identifies and addresses common problems. MethodologyOnly successfully completed repairs are currently included in the analysis. Routine maintenance, most wear items, recalls, and problems fixed with just a reflash or warning light reset are not included.

| Jul | 2009 | 121000 | 100 | Vehicle began overheating while on a trip. Overheats after an hour of driving. Coolant is usually about a qt low each time. No leaks found yet, engine tests ok - no internal leaks. System losing about 2psi every 5 minutes on pressure test. |
| Sep | 2009 | 121000 | 500 | Followup to overheating problem from July 2009. Leak finally became visible on rear heater tubes at coming from the firewall. Had shop bypass rear heat to address the problem. Outcome pending... |
| Oct | 2009 | 122000 | 100 | Vehicle still overheats after an hour of constant running. Coolant is down by about 1/2 gallon. All leak tests performed but no leaks found yet. |
| Feb | 2010 | 123500 | 530 | Coolant leak - present since July 09 finally became bad enough that it could be located. Turned out to be the water pump. Old pump was not correct for the vehicle - required additional labor to remove. Fingers crossed-I think we've got it this time! Oil pressure sending unit failed causing warning light to illuminate. Since the cause of the warning light could not be determined by driver, van was taken to shop immediately. |
