I was still oversleeping Sunday morning after falling asleep during Al Gore's career change effort (I guess he figures that a lead role in a Lorne Michaels movie deal will make him as lovable as Rob Schnieder), when girlfriend brings in morning coffee and Sunday NY Times (! - must be close to Christmas?). First stop is car section which had article on JD Power survey on Vehicle Dependability Study Survey based on responses of 30,000 original owners of 1998 model vehicles.
Eight of the 15 most popular models were Japanese, no surprise. Rankings were based on problems per 100 vehicles. Average was 355 per 100, Lexus at top had 159, Mercedes had 364 and Kia had 709. SAAB had 373 per 100, not bad considering its ahead of Audi (392), V*lv* (402), VW (489), and Land Rover (585).
I predict SAAB will suffer in next year's ranking of 1999 cars when 9-5 owners list complaints of broken fingernails trying to figure out how to open their rear hatch.
