We have updated our reliability stats for the Xterra to include owner experiences through June 30, 2012.

Repair frequencies, in terms of repair trips per 100 cars per year:

2010: no repairs reported, 13 SUVs

2008: 75, worse than average

2007: 47, about average

2006: 58, about average

2005: 78, about average

2002: 116, worse than average

2000: 67, better than average

Very small sample sizes in all cases, while probably explains much of the variation from year to year. We'd like to provide much more precise stats in future updates--just need more owners involved to do this.
