JD Power has delivered their findings in an initial quality report that shows the rankings of all manufacturers starting with the ones who have the fewest reported issues, and Mercedes-Benz is at the top of that list.

Initial quality is a benchmark that measures the number of issues reported by owners in the first 90 days of ownership. A major data point that manufacturers are very careful to watch because it is a very simple way to gauge overall satisfaction with the vehicle and whether issues unbeknownst to the buyer may reveal themselves in the early stages of ownership.

First Time For Domestic Brands

Collectively, the domestic manufacturers have surpassed the import manufacturers in terms of initial quality. This marks a significant milestone in the overall accomplishments in domestic car makers overcoming a reputation for being less reliable than their import competitors.

When you shop for a car, one of the most important elements in determining which vehicle to choose almost always comes down to whether a vehicle is going to be a hassle to maintain. The confidence in buying quality and supporting the domestics is something we’ve been waiting to make official.

Buying American

Reports are great. Statistics are useful. Real world results – speak volumes.

Never before has buying American been such an impact on the economy, the future and the confidence. Our future depends on the ability to remain the world leader in new technology and development of functionality of vehicles that make our lives easier. It’s apparent that companies have outsourced, that isn’t due for a change, but core competency can’t be contracted out if a company wants to maintain a competitive edge.

Most Satisfying Car Brand For Germans

The survey was done with the premise that ‘customers know best’ when it comes to which car brand truly satisfies their needs—whether be it for transport or simply ownership. It’s actually the second time around that this particular survey was conducted, and involved 16,330 drivers in the whole of Germany who had to tap on their experiences in driving German automobiles.
