TrueDelta Offers Nearly Realtime Vehicle Reliability Data



The West Bloomfield Township-based auto reliability data Web site TrueDelta.com has released updated vehicle quality online survey reports through the end of March.

Based on more than 10,000 responses, these include the only reliability stats available anywhere for some 2009 model vehicles.

Included are full results for the redesigned Audi A4 and the new Ford Flex, both of which have required few repairs so far.

Owners are also reporting few repairs for the 2008 and 2009 VW Jetta, Rabbit, and GTI.

The repair frequency for the Hyundai Genesis has increased, but remains not far from average. The Jaguar XF has not improved, and remains much worse than average.

Among 2008s, the Chevrolet Malibu and Ford Fusion continue to have virtually identical scores to the Honda Accord. The Cadillac CTS, which was much worse than average last year, has improved quite a bit, and is now not far from the average.

More at www.truedelta.com.

Car owners join TrueDelta as "panel members" and provide TrueDelta's data through brief online surveys. In exchange for their participation, these owners receive full access to TrueDelta's quarterly results free of charge.

Through rapid growth, the number of vehicles in TrueDelta's panel will reach 30,000 in June. This growth is due in part to enthusiastic support from owner forums such as DriveAccord.net, NICOClub.com, SaturnFans.com, EnclaveForum.net, and CadillacForums.com. These forums were essential in quickly building a viable sample of 2008 model owners.
