Independent statistical agencies report that the world is gradually improving, at least most manufacturers show a decrease in the number of defects per 100 machines.

In particular, according to the results of the annual study of the J.D. Power, in 2008, almost three-quarters of the 36 brands surveyed showed an increase in the quality of new cars. On average, the quality of cars rolled off the assembly line and operated for three months improved from 125 defects per 100 vehicles in 2007 to 118 problems per 100 vehicles in 2008. Japanese models - Civic, CR-V and Fit - lead in 2008 in terms of reliability in several market segments at once. Also in the US, two awards for the best quality in the segment received (Malibu and Silverado), (Dakota and Durango), (EX-series and M-series), (LS and RX) and (CLK-class and E-class). The Porsche 911 has the fewest quality problems of any car in the US market, with only 67 defects per 100 new cars. In addition, the best in their classes are ford van E-Series, the large Lincoln Navigator SUV, the Mazda MX-5 Miata roadster, the Pontiac Grand Prix sedan and the huge Toyota Sequoia SUV.

Quality research for new cars serves as a benchmark for the automotive industry. It is the initial quality indicator that will be an excellent predictor of long-term reliability, which can have a significant impact on the choice of buyers in favor of a particular company. The study covers two areas of problems: design miscalculations and defects in the production of cars. To some extent, based on such ratings, manufacturers adjust the design and production process of their models. The study concludes that 86 percent of the improvement in product quality is due to the achievements of automakers in eliminating defects and malfunctions on the assembly line and within production processes. Minimizing design issues continues to be a major challenge for the industry, especially as navigation, wireless communication systems, advanced entertainment devices, and voice control systems are becoming increasingly common in today's vehicles.

Along with J.D. Power also investigates the factories where they are produced. According to the results of the study, the best of the assembly automobile enterprises are assigned something like “honorary titles”. As a criterion for evaluating plants, an average estimate of the number of cars coming off the assembly line of all models produced per 100 is used. Moreover, these are only manufacturing defects and malfunctions that are not related to design flaws. Automobile enterprises are divided into groups depending on the location. The most “defect-free” were car factories - the leaders of the European group, the best of Japanese factories showed themselves a little worse, and even worse -.

In 2008, the highest rank of "Platinum" in the field of quality among vehicle manufacturers goes to the Mercedes-Benz assembly plant in Sindelfingen (Germany), which is seen in the least number of defects and malfunctions. The average value for all models produced here is only 33 defects per 100 vehicles. The plant produces Mercedes-Benz CL-Class, CLS-Class, sedans and station wagons E-Class and representative Mercedes-Benz S-class.

Among the North American plants, the “Gold” rating deserved Toyota factory in Mexico, admitting Toyota pickups Tacoma, with 42 defects per 100 cars produced. The plant also became “Silver” Toyota, located in Texas and producing another pickup truck -. The third, “bronze”, was the General Motors plant in Kansas, which produces the Chevrolet Malibu and Saturn Aura models.

Among the best Japanese plants are two more Toyota enterprises. One of them, in Fujimatsu, makes the Prius, and the second specializes in all Lexus models and Toyota RAV4 SUVs, Land cruiser and 4Runner. Another Japanese plant, Tochigi, rated Silver is owned by Nissan. They make the Infiniti G-series and M-series sedans, as well as the Nissan 350Z sports model.

The three European plants were headed by the already mentioned Mercedes-Benz plant in Sindelfingen. The second was the Porsche plant in Stuttgart (produces the Porsche 911 in coupe and cabriolet bodies) with 37 defects per 100 vehicles. The BMW plant in Regensburg has become “bronze”, all modifications are made there.

The best car assembly plants in 2008 in terms of product quality
(number of defects per 100 cars produced)

It should be noted that all factories themselves keep statistics of defects on their conveyors. Naturally, this also applies to the assembly plants of foreign companies in Russia. Detailed statistics are often posted right in the shops, but, of course, the information that is shown there is strictly confidential. Therefore, when evaluating plants, it is necessary to use indirect methods, tracking the malfunctions of produced cars already in the process of operation.

Although collected by J.D. Power Statistics have defined the circle of the best plants in the world, their prestigious annual Founder's Award in 2008 J.D. Power handed over to a completely different plant. At the end of September, the company's assembly plant in Oshawa (Ontario, Canada) received the award "for its longstanding commitment to the production of high-quality vehicles."

The Founder's Award is an award. which is given to individuals or companies that demonstrate dedication and commitment to continually improving customer service. In the 40-year history of the award, only 22 companies and individuals have been able to receive it.

The plant has received several awards for quality, including J.D. Power, it became "Gold" in 2002, 2003, 2005 and 2006, and also "Silver" in 2005 and 2007.

This factory has an area of ​​more than 930,000 square meters. m and more than 4800 employees. He currently produces models - the pride of GM: and Buick LaCrosse. At the end of 2008, on the new “flexible” line Flex, the production of new Chevrolet generations Camaro.
