Not sure why there's no Large Premium Car segment this year, but according to the official press release "the Lexus LS has the fewest problems in the industry, with just 72 PP100."

When you consider the amount of Lexus products on the road vs Porsche, MB & Cadillac, it's truly a testament to how high they've set the bench mark for mass production.

Amazing that 3 out of the top 5 are products from the same company. Scion has really raised their game up.

The brand that surprises me the most is Honda, which used to be right up there with the best but is now decidedly average. Wonder what happened?

Honda is still the top-rated vehicle-manufacturer for reliability at Consumer Reports, which, for a number of reasons, I have long-considered a better source than J.D. Power.
