We have updated our reliability stats for the Xterra (on our redesigned site) to include owner experiences through December 31, 2011.
Repair frequencies, in terms of repair trips per 100 cars per year:
2007: 35, better than average
2006: 76, about average
2005: 111, about average
2002: 49, better than average
2000: 114, about average
Small sample sizes in all cases, so these stats are not precise.
Thank you, once again, to everyone who has been helping. We'll have further updates in May and August. With more participants, we could provide more precise information and cover all model years.
