Stellantis brands dominate J.D. Power's Initial Quality Study.

Stellantis brands Dodge, Ram, and Alfa Romeo finished 1-2-3 in the J.D. Power Initial Quality Study, which polled 93,380 buyers and lessees of new 2023 model-year cars in the US. The study found that Dodge was the highest-ranking brand overall in initial quality with a score of 140, with Ram ranking a close second and Alfa Romeo third. However, the study also showed an overall rising number of complaints, with technology issues being the main culprit. Tesla and Polestar ranked at the bottom of the list, but were not "rank eligible" due to not meeting the study's award criteria.
