Acura has moved up from its 10th ranking in 2010 to 6th in J.D. Power and Associates 2011 U.S. Vehicle Dependability Study(VDS).

“The study, which measures problems experienced during the past 12 months by original owners of three-year-old (2008 model year) vehicles, includes 202 different problem symptoms across all areas of the vehicle. Overall dependability is determined by the level of problems experienced per 100 vehicles (PP100), with a lower score reflecting higher quality.”

The 2008 Acura RL received the award for Most Dependable Midsize Premium Car while the Acura TSX and Acura TL were ranked in the top three of the Entry Premium Car segment.
