According to J.D. Power, the 2019 Customer Service Index (Mass Market) Study is based on responses from 2,644 new-vehicle owners who received their new vehicle between February 2016 and June 2018 and had their vehicles sent for service between February 2018 and June 2019. The study fielded from February 2018 and June 2019 measured customers’ satisfaction with the servicing and vehicle-return process.

Now at its 17th year, the study measures the overall satisfaction among vehicle owners who visited an authorized service centre for maintenance or repair work during the first 12 to 36 months of ownership and is based on five factors; service quality (25%); vehicle pick-up (21%); service initiation (20%); service facility (17%); and service advisor (16%). Presently, the overall satisfaction for the industry averages 761 points.
