Default GX 460 Reliability

I'm not keen on the CU auto tests but their data for problem areas are reported by subscribers.

Here is how the 460 fares through '16 model year. I bet the fuel system on my '12 in this rating is related to the air pump issues.

Ha, I own a '15 and it seems good....No problem so far except it leans "sometimes" and pulls to the right "sometimes".

Wonder what the changes are due to in the drive system and in-car electronics between 15 and 16? Brakes too... I wasn’t aware of any changes...

Might have just been '14 and '15 owners who got hit with that botched OTA update

I think this was before the '16s came out.

TrueDelta is a good site for vehicle reliability data.

Unfortunately not enough 460 owners have joined to show up on their surveys.

A vehicle won't show up until there are 25 owners for each model year.

Agreed the same for years but you have to factor in possibly different parts suppliers or perhaps even some Q&A issues with some employees on assembly line at time.

If someones infotainmmet got bricked by an update that could easily account for someone giving a bad review for that piece.

Looks like Enform was updated slightly in 2015

So, In 2019, I need to ditch my 2011 and buy my wife a 4-year old low mileage 2015. Got it, thanks!

We all know these rigs have overall stellar reliability and the data above wouldn’t steer me in any direction model year wise for a purchase.
