Anybody do this survey?


Today I received a first class letter from JD Power.Seems legit with envelope and letter head.I emailed the Project coordinator and get a reply.
Questionnaire didn't ask for any personal info.

The letter states JD Power from time to time invites consumers to test drive and evaluate new or prototype vehicles.I was one of a select group of people who may be eligible to participate in an evaluation of a new premium sedan that is schedules to enter the US market next year.
If selected I would get a Premium sedan to drive for approx 3 weeks.
They're looking for people who have no major accidents and are eligible for full insurance coverage.
Project to begin late this month.
Insurance and roadside assistance provided.I would just pay for gas and record how much and how many miles on each fill up.Also my impressions of the vehicle on a online survey weekly.
Feedback will be used by engineers and my responses are kept confidential.
No one will try to sell me anything as a result of participation in this project..

An hour meeting with engineers when picking the vehicle and another hour or so when dropping it off.

Again,anyone ever do the survey?

Sounds interesting. I didn't know JDP did tests like this, I figured manufactures did them themselves. It sounds legit though. Think you'll do it? It might be fun as long as there aren't more strings attached etc.

I'll do it if there's no other hidden things I must do other than the meetings before and after the trial and weekly online surveys which are 30-60 minutes.
I also have to pick up the vehicle.If far away,I'll probably pass.

Hi,

Did you ever received car for test? I received similar letter few weeks back nd they called me that I can test car for 3 weeks. But I am not sure if it is legit or some scam.
Emails seems legit using jdpa.com address.

So let me know how was your experience with them and will it worth test drive that car for 3 weeks.

Thanks.

Hi everyone,

Does any one received a letter from JD power to test and evaluate a new car for 3 weeks?

I received letter from JD power 3 weeks back to fill out survey and last week they send me email that I am selected to test and evaluate new upcoming van for 3 weeks. Letter seems legit as its was on JD power letter head and has email address jdpa.com.

They are not asking for money. They want copy of driver license and my insurance to verify my record. And then they will deliver the vehicle at my home.

Does anyone has seen it and ever signup with them? If yes, how was the experience? Is it legit or just a scam?

Please let me know about it.

Thanks.
