Performance and Design: Taken from the Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout (APEAL) study, this measure is based on owner satisfaction with vehicle Performance, Style, Features and Instrument Panel, and Comfort.

Initial Quality: Taken from the Initial Quality Study (IQS), which looks at owner-reported problems in the first 90 days of new-vehicle ownership, this score is based on problems that have caused a complete breakdown or malfunction, or where controls or features may work as designed, but are difficult to use or understand.

Predicted Reliability: Derived from historical trending for a vehicle and/or manufacturer in our Initial Quality and Vehicle Dependability Studies, Predicted Reliability is a forecast of how reliable a newer vehicle might be over time.

Overall Dependability: Taken from the Vehicle Dependability Study (VDS), which looks at owner-reported problems in the first 3 years of new-vehicle ownership, this score is based on problems that have caused a complete breakdown or malfunction of any component, feature, or item (i.e., components that stop working or trim pieces that break or come loose).

    Purchased my 2012 Chevrolet Camaro new in October 2011. I started having trouble with the transmission around middle of March 2012, which it goes without saying this is way too early to have drive-train related problems. To make matters worse, my local Chevrolet dealer ordered my replacement part (torque converter) on March 22nd, 2012, and it did not arrive at my Chevrolet dealer until April 6th, 2012. I have made it clear to Chevrolet that this is totally unacceptable as far as service after the sell goes, and I am considering trading for another make of car. Although I will add that I think the car is built well considering, so therefore a mid-grade rating.
