JDPowers results. Ug

Time for MINI and BMW to get together. Yes really together. 10th place for BMW but MINI is 3rd from the bottom

. At least it was above the other competitors for MINI.

Best post I've seen with regard to how the JD Powers Initial Quality Survey misleads folks - "they add in poeples' incompetence as a defect."

Actually, surprised the results were that good considering that every turbo model built between 2007 and early 2012 had to be recalled this year.

Kudos to Jaguar for such a strong result.

That's initial quality. How about dependability?

Maybe this will make you feel better:

JD what the hell is for people who can't or won't do their own research and try to live life in a bubble. If you want a certain car get it and take what comes with it. You roll the dice you take yer chances.
