Re: HUMMER ranks 34/36
CR tends to favor "reliable" vehicles, which means SUVs that aren't in the shop much. H2s are in the shop a lot more than other vehicles - if you wheel, you have damage, it's that simple. They also have a lot more parts than most vehicles due to the 4WD. The 03 had some issues as well (they were all minor tho, but they did require service). If you add that to the fact that Hummer only makes 2 models, then yeah - they're going to be ranked low. If Ford makes a lemon, it doesn't stand out because they have enough models that aren't that make up for it. But in a smaller pool, it means more.
CR should be taken with a grain of salt.
