J.D. Power: Lexus, Buick Tops in Dependability Study while Vehicle Problems Continue to Climb for Industry
By Dave Bean, Content Editor, FMW
Technology issues continue to dog vehicle ratings, as reported in the recently released J.D. Power 2025 U.S. Vehicle Dependability Study (VDS).
A 6% uptick overall in vehicle problems was reported from last year’s edition of the study. According to J.D. Power, the spike is largely a result of owners of mass market vehicles expressing dissatisfaction with various software components.
J.D. Power also utilizes the results of the 2025 U.S. Vehicle Dependability Study to determine which makes and models are recipients of their coveted awards. This year's overall brand winner for vehicle dependability is Lexus, while the top overall model is Toyota Avalon.
