The annual J. D. Power Initial Quality Study, now in its 28th year, serves as an in- dustry benchmark for new vehicle quality measured at 90 days of ownership. The response of more than 86,000 U.S. car buyers forms the basis for the study. These buyers indicated how satisfied they were with the quality of their new cars during the first three months of ownership. The study evaluated a total of 239 vehicle models from 32 carmakers, which were initially registered between November 2013 and February 2014. The owners answered questions on more than 233 criteria from different categories.
