Honda Mall of Georgia: Honda ranks fifth in Intital Quality


For the second straight year, Honda is the highest ranking mass-market, non-premium brand in the J.D. Power and Associates 2012 Initial Quality Study. All told, Honda ranked fifth among all industry nameplates and two Honda auto plants also received awards.

"For the second consecutive year our performance demonstrates our consistent commitment to deliver the highest quality for our customers," said Tetsuo Iwamura, president & CEO of American Honda Motor Co., Inc, in a released statement. "Thanks to the efforts of Honda associates in R&D, in manufacturing and in sales, we were able to continue to improve quality performance in this key industry ranking."

The Honda brand improved for the fourth straight year, and maintained its top performing mass market position from last year.

 

Leading in the compact crossover SUV category was the 2012Honda CR-V. Receiving four or five stars in all categories but one, the CR-V was tops in Overall Quality and ranked "Among the Best." Five other Honda models finished in the top-2 for their segments; the Accord for midsize car; the Odyssey for minivan; the Crosstour for midsize crossover SUV; the Ridgeline (midsize pickup); and the Fit (sub-compact car) were all four or five-star rated models in their respective categories.

Surprisingly, the Honda Civic did not finish at the top of its segment, but typically, was awarded five stars and ranked "Among the Best."

Honda as a whole surveyed to have just 83 problems per 100 vehicles, well below the industry average of 102 (PP100), good enough for the fifth spot in the nameplate rankings. According to J.D. Power and Associates, the study is based on responses from more than 74,000 purchasers and lessees of new 2012 model-year vehicles after 90 days of ownership and a 228-question metric to help industries improve products.
