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).

    wha?

    i just read that ford got on the list of most dependable cars on msn and volkswagon got on the list of not dependable according to JDP lists. yet my 2011 VW golf got a better rated score than this 2012 ford focus. ive seen lots of you tube complaints about the 2012 focus but none about a volkswagon. is someone getting pressure from somewhere about the fact that vw had the most sales last year? my 2011 golf is a tank and i love it. ive driven the focus and there is no comparison. please.

    My 2012 Ford Focus SEL has a My Ford Touch screen that fractured when pushed. The Dealer says it is not a warranty item despite the fact that defective items are warrantied. Has this been a problem for any other owner?
