DETROIT (MainStreet) -- The auto industry is making better vehicles than it has in at least two decades, with Toyota(TM) and Ford(F) winning honors for the most-top quality models.
In releasing the results of its 2012 vehicle dependability study, which considered 2009 vehicles, J.D. Power said dependability improved 13% from a year earlier, leading to the lowest problem rate since the inception of the study in 1990, when 1987 vehicles were measured.
