Recently I happened upon a report by JD Power that looked at 3 years of non maintenance repair frequency of single owner cars. It did not surprise me that Chrysler vehicles were at the bottom of the list. What I did find remarkable was even the worst brands averaged under 2 repairs during that time period. When I was younger I worked in service stations and auto dealers and most vehicles were back at the dealer more than 2 times in the first 90 days for non maintenance repairs. Combine the current repair numbers with the extended maintenance schedules and cars have really come a long way in the last 40 years that I have been driving.
