Thanks for the post; it's great to see America rising to the top again in quality!

Toyota will be #1 in the Consumer Reports self reporting survey. LOL

Something's not right. The headline you link to says #1, but the article states the same as the OP above, GMC #2, Chevy #5

JD Power ranks Porsche #1, GMC #2 and Chevy #5!

And I am not kidding! JD Powers Nameplate IQS is out and it has Chevrolet at #5. That is amazing! How in the world...
And the bottom 5 are Mini, Nissan, Mitsubushi, Fiat and Scion is dead last. Not an American brand at the bottom. When was the last time that happened? I am not asking that rhetorically, I just assumed Chrysler or Jeep would be in the bottom 5 but Chrysler is above the median and Jeep isn't too far from the middle of the pack.

And the more Volts sold, the higher Chevy will rise on that list!

In other recent good news for Chevy, the Impala scored second places in a five car comparison test by Motor Trend (July '13 issue) and in a six car comparison test by Car and Driver (July '13 issue). It's been a long time since the Impala has been competitive in its class. Hopefully the revamped 2014 Malibu will also improve its standing.

That's the overall company rating -- GM, Ford, Toyota, Nissan, etc -- and includes the divisions of the company -- Toyota, Lexus, Scion. Toyota has Lexus ranked high but Scion very low.

Thanks for the clarification, DonC. I have edited the post title to match.

J.D. Power ranks GM tops in quality

Way to go GM. No doubt the Chevy Volt and their owners contributed to this!

CNN Money Article

 

[brentalan]

I know I did. I got the J.D. Power survey and filled out a perfect score for my Volt.

 

[Orange]

I should have filled it out 3 months later...this is the 2nd month with my volt it is now making a griding noise, again. So I think this car is going to be a constsnt headache. I might be unlucky and scored myself a rare lemon.

 

[deekster_caddy]

I filled out the JD Powers survey, definitely. It was long! And I gave the Volt high marks, although I was critical in the appropriate areas (rear view, thick pillars etc)
