Power Initial Quality Study, each averaging just 136 problems in the first 90 days of ownership per 100 cars. Dodge follows up on a good showing in last year's Consumer Reports reliability study by taking the top spot here. It's the first time one of the U.S. Big Three has hit number one. Tesla wouldn't let J.D. Power conduct surveys, so the trendy EV maker wasn't officially ranked. But it did have more problems than any other automaker, 250 per 100. Industry average this year was 166. Edited June 25, 2020 by piglo MtDeW, Hunter1948, WeednFeed and 2 others 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

The cabin air vent behind the passenger seat located at the base of the cab leaked and rotted out the interior when it sat for a month at his school. Always found water on the floor board and it was thought it was the third brake light leaking. Nope, bad design an the water comes in around the edge of the seal. Sounds after going through this that it has been a problem for them. RobMc, YACCster and piglo 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

Not one issue except brakes, tires. We bought the Optima brand new, we got it loaded with all the tech stuff, all the sensors around the car to tell you if cars are around when switching lanes, every option available at the time. Just didn't get the turbo engine. We paid $24,500 for it, if I would of bought a Ford or Chevy with all the same options it would of been a lot more money YACCster, Merlin007, piglo and 2 others 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
