Last year, Ford averaged 188 problems per 100 vehicles (PP100), which ranked it above the industry average of 192 problems per 100 vehicles, as well as 16th among all automotive brands. However, the 2023 Dependability Study shows that FoMoCo plummeted to 29th place – near the bottom of the pack – with 249 problems per 100 vehicles. Meanwhile, the industry as a whole actually improved by 6 PP100, from 195 to 186, year-over-year.
The 2023 U.S. Vehicle Dependability Study is based on the responses of 30,062 original owners of 2020 model-year vehicles after three years of ownership. It examines how 2020 model-year vehicles are currently performing in terms of quality, component replacement, and appeal – including those vehicles with new technology – and helps automotive manufacturers design and build better vehicles to stand the test of time and promote higher resale value. This year’s study covers 184 specific problem areas across nine major vehicle categories – climate; driving assistance; driving experience; exterior; features/controls/displays; infotainment; interior; powertrain; and seats.
