Well it's typical that each car and owner can have markedly different experiences. But my 2004 ARC has had a good number of issues - most thank fully replaced under warranty, they include :
TB, multiple as in 5 or 6 ACC issues, ABS module issues, DICs, CPS, Heat bypass valve and of course batteries dying every four years and oil seepage from the head gasket.
My 1999 9-5 had better reliability thru 170k miles than the 2004 with 90k miles.
So if other owners have had similar problems or just a lot of problems I can see why CR gives it a less than stellar rating.
