These are based on 2020 model-year RX "The 2023 U.S. Vehicle Dependability Study is based on responses from 30,062 original owners of 2020 model-year vehicles after three years of ownership. The study was fielded from August through November 2022."

The dependability study is always surveying owners of three year old models and initial quality study owners at six months.

I usually don't use crude terms, but Ford and Lincoln have got to start getting their s*** together on the reliability front. J.D. Power has them almost as low-ranking as Land-Rover. ...although one hopeful sign is the sharp improvement in the Lincoln Corsair's reliability rating from Consumer Reports after a bad first year.

A shame, too, as Ford has come out with some enormously popular new designs lately, such as the Maverick and Bronco/Bronco-Sport....they can't fill existing demand.

No surprises there...

Look at Kia, Hyundai and Genesis...really impressive. MB dragged down by all the issues with the GLE and GLS for MY2020.

The 2023 Lexus RX has been out for all of two months - I can't see how they can determine this. And the new release has several bugs in it (digital key problems, misaligned fuel doors, etc) already.

Yeah, let's wait and see.
Especially since the newer models changed so much.

Must be humiliating for Ford and Lincoln to be ranked below Tesla.

This is for vehicles from 2020.

How can you have no engine or transmission and be 28th out of 32 in dependability.

How can you have no engine and transmission, outsell Camry and Accord in their biggest market, deliver over a million cars a year, and be more valuable than the big three car companies combined. That must be really humiliating...

A bit misleading considering it took Toyota 6 months to sort out the issues of their first international EV before they could sell it again.
