We've updated the results for the F-150 to include owner experiences through June 30, 2010. Other sources of car reliability information won't cover the more recent months until the summer or even fall of next year.

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

2010: 19

2009: 37

2007: 13

2006: 45

2005: 50

2004: 47

2003: 86

2001: 49

The 2003 is about average. The others are all better than average.

Good sample sizes for the 2004, 2009, and 2010. Small sample sizes for the other years.

Thank you, once again, to everyone who had been helping. We'll have further updates in November and February. With more participants, we could provide more precise information and cover all model years from 1995 on.
