Each of General Motors’ four U.S. brands earned a segment award in the 2012 J.D. Power and Associates Initial Quality StudySM, helping GM to its best-ever company score compared to the industry average in the 26-year history of the widely watched third-party quality measure.

GM has nine vehicles either receiving a segment award or placing in the top three of their respective segments. As a company, GM outscored the industry average.

For the first time, GM occupies the top three spots in the highly competitive Large Pickup Segment with the GMC Sierra LD, and Chevrolet Silverado HD and Avalanche, finishing one-two-three respectively.

"Our biggest motivation is the recognition of quality from people who buy our cars and trucks," said Alicia Boler-Davis, vice president Global Quality and U.S. vice president of Customer Experience. "We are listening to them and know we have more work to do to improve across our entire vehicle portfolio to provide the best overall ownership experience."

Just givin' a little GotMopar grief. I don't take any off these surveys seriously. All cars have good points and bad points, but Jag at the top? Now I know something is wrong.
