Scion FR-S reliability
TrueDelta updates actual repair frequencies, not just dots, four times a year to track cars' reliability closely as they age.
We've been covering Scions for some time, and lately have had stats for the FR-S as well.
Participants simply report repairs the month after they occur on a one-page survey. When there are no repairs, they only report an approximate odometer reading four times a year, following the end of each quarter.
The more owners participate, the more precise the stats will be. To encourage participation, participants receive full access to all results for free.

We've updated our reliability stats for the FR-S to include owner experiences through September 30, 2013.
Repair frequencies, in terms of repair trips per 100 cars per year:

We have two additional statistics, "Nada-odds" and "Lemon-odds", to indicate the percentage of cars with no repairs in the past year and those that required 3+ trips to the repair shop:

We'll have further updates in February and in May. The more owners participate, the more comprehensive and precise these will be.
