In this current economy, when our money and investments could mean if we are able to pay for the roof over our head or a meal on our dining room table, everyone wants to make a sound choice when it comes to purchasing an automobile. Each year J.D. Power and Associates help determine that choice by releasing their annual Vehicle Dependability Study. The study scores each auto make by the number of problems per 100 vehicles.

JD Power and Associates has identified the 2009 Nissan Altima as the “Highest Ranked Midsize Car in Initial Quality”. The Initial Quality Study is designed to be a predictor of long-term durability and measures owner-reported problems that occur during the first 90 days of ownership. Responses from 80,930 new-vehicle owners were collected from February to May 2009 and spanned 245 models. The 2009 Nissan Altima received the lowest number of problems per 100 vehicles among midsize cars. The JD Power study also gave the Altima the highest possible rating in Fuel Economy Range and high scores for seating capacity and horsepower.
