The annual J.D. Power Initial Quality StudySM (IQS) asks thousands of new-vehicle owners about the problems they have experienced with their new car, truck, SUV, or van during the first 90 days of ownership.
From this research, J.D. Power formulates Power Circle Ratings (PCRs), which are designed to be consumer-friendly summaries of the information.
