Ford is delivering new innovations with better quality than average as the industry has faced challenges rolling out new advancements such as connectivity and driver-assist features. Specifically, Ford is:

? Equipping approximately 70 percent of vehicles with advanced SYNC 3 technology with significant quality improvements

? Offering more models in the United States with popular driver-assist features such as adaptive cruise control and forward collision warning than any other full-line manufacturer.

? Continuing the rapid rollout of advanced EcoBoost engine technology and light weighting innovations such as aluminum-bodied F-Series trucks – combining to deliver improved performance, capability and efficiency.

Ford has earned the Number Two ranking of all non-premium brands in this year’s J.D. Power Initial Quality Study which is the brand’s best ranking in the report’s 31-year history thanks to products like the Mustang.
