JD Power Dependability Study
Hmmmmm. Porsche did not do so well in title rankings. Just below Chrysler. :ah:
Buick (!) and Lexus tie for first. http://www.usatoday.com/money/autos/2007-08-09-jdpower-study_N.htm?csp=34 |
I'd rather wrench on a Porsche than drive a Buick. ;)

70Sixter, it's just the 2004 owners that have to worry :)

Porsche owners are a tough bunch to please. Makes you wonder how many were disgruntled at the expense involved in routine maintenance or minor repairs like resetting CELs. |
JD Power Survey
JD Power's methods are suspect. They claim to have contacted 53,000 owners for the survey, but never say how many responded! I know that whenever I received one of their "surveys", I filed it in the circular file. Think about it ... Jaguar ranked in the top eleven ... BWAAAAAAAHAAAAAHAAAAAA! Typically, people who are not satisfied are more likely to respond than people who are satisfied. Plus, if they only receive two disgruntled surveys for a particular make ... Voila! we have a survey result. This is NOT a scientifically rigorous survey ... it is just junk-science, IMHO.

Mo' JD Powers Commentary
Here is a BusinessWeek take on the matter.
http://www.businessweek.com/autos/content/aug2007/bw2007088_579346.htm?campaign_id=rss_autos And maybe SD987 was correct about 04 986s! Apparently that was the year they used. Now I'm worried. Naahh, not really. But apparently I contributed to the survey. So my input was offset by other pickier types. |
i think i'm siding w/ 'mountain man' on this one. i don't believe porsche is lower than ford?!?!? :confused:
