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.
