Chevrolet HHR reliability - how does it compare?

In late 2005 I started conducting my own reliability research. I'm reporting absolute stats like "times in the shop" that will make the differences between cars much clearer. Relative ratings obscure too much--how large is the difference between "better than average" and "worse than average"? I’ll also be updating results four times a year, so there will be information on new models sooner.

I’ve started collecting data on the Honda Fit and Nissan Versa, but need a few more Yaris owners to start on it.

To encourage participation, panel members will receive full access to the results free of charge.

Details: Vehicle reliability research

Comments, questions, and suggestions welcome.

Kind of....but, not really...Tireman.

He's been here before and I believe one of our members checked him out. Also a few have participated in his survey....more members from another forum.

He does provide some interesting data. If you believe it, or not, is your choice.

But, I'm not sure, at this point, he should be getting free advertising !!!!

Good to know. But unless you're participating in the survey, this isn't reflected in TrueDelta's results
