I saw this in USA Today. It is the latest J.D. Power and Associates 2002 quality rankings. It is based on problems per 100 vehicles during the first 90 days of ownership. Number one, once again is Lexus, followed by Acura and Infiniti. BMW is 7th, Volvo is 5th. My question is why Mercedes is all the way down at 13th, just one spot ahead of Chrysler. This really is bothering me, because I cannot figure it out. Maybe you all can help me a bit.
