I provide the site's information for free to everyone who helps provide it--there's not a lot of revenue to divvy up.

I am grateful that this forum has provided permission to post here, and do link back to it from all of my results pages for the F-150, along with sharing these results in the thread.

We've updated the our reliability stats for the F-150 to include owner experiences through September 30, 2012.

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

2003: 63, about average, small sample size

2002: 59, better than average, small sample size

2001: 40, better than average

2000: 42, better than average, small sample size

1999: 35, better than average, very small sample size

1998: 71, better than average, very small sample size

1997: 113, about average, very small sample size

We'll have further updates in February and May. With more owners involved, we could provide more precise information and fully cover all model years from 1998 on.

Sorry for not responding sooner. We send emails following the end of each quarter with links to the survey. One will be going out tomorrow.

So, how have these cars been doing lately?

Our reliability stats for the F-150 now include owner experiences through March 31, 2015. (Others are nearly a year behind.)

In terms of repair trips per 100 cars per year ("low" is best):

2003 F-150: 20, low, very small sample size
2002 F-150: 49, low
2001 F-150: 95, moderate
2000 F-150: 53, low, very small sample size

Plus, the percentage of cars with no repairs in the past year and those that required 3+ trips to the repair shop:

2002 F-150: 74, 8

Next updates in August and November. Additional participants needed for the 2001 and up.
