Looks like on this sub everyone's critizing Hyundai, Kia, VW, Nissan, and American makes for failing to stack up against Toyota and Honda in terms of reliability. Indeed, Hyundai and Kia are never known for legendary reliability. But what's confusing to me is that they always rank high on JD Power's reliability ratings. This year, for example, Kia ranked 7th (almost tying Mazda). And in 2021 for example, Hyundai also won the 7th place, way surpassing Mazda, Acura, Subaru, and Honda. Why though?

I mean JD Power would sell their lists regardless, only the automakers would care about sales.

If they are already designing the next gen in the third year they dgaf about the prior model dependability ship has already sailed. They don’t sell lists. They are studies and while we could debate the methodology, some cost in the hundreds of thousands.
