Now on its 30th year, JD Power, a firm dedicated to marketing efforts, offers its barometer of the automotive industry from different points of view. Unlike other studies, which focus on aspects such as the reliability of the car, the JD Power 2016 Sales Satisfaction Index US (SSI) published these days does the same focus on the treatment that the customer receives when purchasing a car.
In the Sales Satisfaction Index (SSI), JD Power values each manufacturer working with parameters derived from studies in which customers value aspects as the work of the trade of each dealer, delivery, facilities and mark time dedicated to the buying process, the ability to test the car, the information received, or facilities for the purchase and financing aspects of the vehicle. This study was conducted in the United States.
