JD Power reliability survey reveals lesser problems this year over the last in cars across segments
The study measures the reliability of three year old vehicles in terms of problems reported per 100 vehicles (PP100). The survey ranks vehicles from ten different segments and bases its statistics on more 150 problematic symptoms across nine categories including engineering, encountered by owners with their used vehicles. A lower score in terms of PP100 implies a higher dependability rank.
On an average, cars across segments under survey this year revealed an average of 290 problems per 100 vehicles. While this still remains significantly higher than the PP100 scores of cars internationally, the number is a good 41 PP100 lesser than last year's figures.
The surprise major gainer of the survey as far as manufacturers go has been Ford - two of the company's cars have topped their respective segments in terms of dependability. While the Ford Ikon has topped the entry-level sedan segment, the Ford Endeavour has come out as the most reliable SUV, trumping the Honda CR-V which was last year's segment topper. Honda's Civic has also lost the spot of the most reliable premium midsize segment car to the Toyota Corolla.
