Chevrolet Equinox reliability - better info - help make it happen

We recently updated results for a couple years of the first-gen Equinox based on owner experience through the end of September 30, 2009. In terms of successful repair trips per 100 cars per year;

2006: 81, about average (blip at the end of the warrranty?)

2005: 56, better than average

These results are based on small sample sizes, so are asterisked and only visible to members on the site:
