  • J.D. Power 2021 U.S. Initial Quality Study (IQS),SM Released Today
    Smartphone Connectivity Now Most Common Problem Cited by New-Vehicle Owners, J.D. Power Finds Ram Ranks Highest Overall in Initial Quality; Lexus Ranks Highest among Premium Brands TROY, Mich.: 31 Aug. 2021 — New-vehicle quality improves 2% from 2020, according to the J.D. Power 2021 U.S. Initial Quality Study (IQS),SM released today. This is slightly lower than the average rate of improvement (3%) seen during the past decade. Infotainment systems are the primary area preventing faster improvement, remaining the most problematic area for new-vehicle owners. “Owners are caught in the middle when vehicle and phone technologies don’t properly connect,” said Dave Sargent, vice president of automotive quality at J.D. Power. “This year there are many examples of smartphone technology not working as intended in new vehicles. With more vehicles being fitted with the wireless technology owners want, the study reveals an increase in connectivity problems between smartphones and vehicles, leaving many owners unhappy.” Initial quality is measured by the number of problems experienced per 100 vehicles (PP100) during the first 90 days of ownership, with a lower score reflecting higher quality. The industry average of 162 PP100 is 4 PP100 better than in 2020, with 20 of 32 brands improving their quality from 2020. Following are key findings of the 2021 study: • Infotainment remains most problematic category: One in four (25%) of all problems cited by new- vehicle owners are in the infotainment category, and six of the top 10 problems across the industry are infotainment-related. • Smartphone connection is top problem: For the first time since 2011, voice recognition is not the top problem cited by new-vehicle owners.
