Chevy Named J.D. Power's Most Awarded Brand

Chevy Named J.D. Power's Most Awarded Brand

MT. PLEASANT, Mich.,–– The J.D. Power Automotive Summit, held in Las Vegas, had some exciting news to share on the morning of March 22nd. Through an extensive amount of vehicle awards, Chevy was named J.D. Power's most awarded brand of 2017. This achievement is a token to the car company's success in all categories across the board.

Six different Chevrolet cars, trucks, and SUVs won a total of nine awards in J.D. Power's 2017 Vehicle Dependability, Initial Quality, and APEAL Studies. Taking home nine awards in just one year demonstrates Chevy's tremendous efforts to continuously develop reliable, safe, and advanced vehicles.


"These awards highlight the automotive brands that are continually exceeding customer expectations and leading the way in terms of dependability, quality and overall customer satisfaction." - J.D. Power


Chevrolet's 2017 J.D. Power Awards:

Vehicle Dependability Study

1. Chevrolet Sonic
2. Chevrolet Camaro
3. Chevrolet Tahoe
4. Chevrolet Silverado HD

Initial Quality Study

5. Chevrolet Silverado
6. Chevrolet Silverado HD
7. Chevrolet Sonic

Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout Study (APEAL)

8. Chevrolet Bolt
9. Chevrolet Tahoe


"Chevrolet is winning with consumers because our designers, engineers and dealers are focused on delivering great products and a great ownership experience," said Alan Batey, president of GM North America and brand chief of Global Chevrolet. "This recognition from J.D. Power shows Chevrolet's strength and underscores the momentum we have across the board."


On top of these many achievements, Chevrolet was also recognized in two other major studies: the 2018 J.D. Power Customer Service Index and the 2017 Sales Satisfaction Index Study. The 2018 J.D. Power Customer Service Index measures customer satisfaction with maintenance or repair work among owners and lessees of 1- to 3-year-old vehicles. The 2017 Sales Satisfaction Index Study measures customers' new vehicle purchase experiences form product presentation to final delivery. These surveys gather feedback from 28,000 to more than 70,000 customers.

Chevrolet's momentum going forward is at an all-time high. The company has a relentless drive and determination to improve the ins and outs of vehicle ownership. This has made the brand GM's most powerful growth engine. Through extensive studies that have led to several vehicle accolades, Chevy was named J.D. Power's most awarded brand of 2017. Continuing this achievement for years to come is a compelling goal for Chevy. This can only be done by the endless support of satisfied customers.

Chevy Partnered With Acclaimed Data Scientist to Create Cross Country Road Trip

MT. PLEASANT, Mich.,–– Have you ever wanted to take a road trip across the entire country? Now, you can. Chevy partnered with an acclaimed data scientist to create a cross country road trip for families heading on vacation this spring. Randy Olson developed a custom map using a specific algorithm that planned a route through all 48 contiguous states, stopping at some of America's favorite family destinations along the way.

A recent national survey held by Chevrolet found that spending time with family and exploring new places were U.S. parent's top two favorite parts about taking family road trips.

Chevy Partnered With Acclaimed Data Scientist to Create Cross Country Road Trip

This data-driven map includes stops at rip-roaring theme parks, national landmarks, and famous attractions all around the country. With less backtracking and less stress in mind, Olson designed this route in the most efficient approach. It was constructed in a way easiest for families to navigate. Get an interactive view of the map here.

If you were to take this daring journey around the states, you would spend a total of 214.56 hours behind the wheel and log 13,389 miles on the odometer, which does not include time or mileage for overnight breaks and any detours along the way.

"This map is designed so road trippers can start anywhere and drive as much or as little as they like," said Olson. "Across the U.S., people can create their perfect route, whether staying close to home or embarking on a once-in-a-lifetime 48-state journey."

Chevy Partnered With Acclaimed Data Scientist to Create Cross Country Road Trip

Keeping passengers entertained and connected on the go is important to Chevy. The in-vehicle tech, such as 4G LTE Wi-Fi, built-in navigation, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto, is offered in a majority of new vehicles such as the Chevy Traverse, Equinox, and Trax. Most new models come equipped with the latest and most advanced safety features that are ideal when logging hours behind the wheel. These include:

  • Surround Vision
  • Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert
  • Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning
  • Rear Cross Traffic Alert
  • Rear Park Assist
  • Rear Seat Reminder

Chevy Partnered With Acclaimed Data Scientist to Create Cross Country Road Trip

Chevrolet has also earned numerous Dependability Awards by J.D. Power, including Most Dependable Compact SUV, Midsize SUV, Large Light Duty Pickup, and Midsize Car.

Looking for a shorter road trip? Olson also curated shorter routes for families looking to explore different ares of the country more in-depth. His routes include the Midwest, the Northeast, the West Coast, Texas, and Florida.


There's no need to map out your route this spring break season. Chevy partnered with an acclaimed data scientist to create a cross country road trip that the whole family will be sure to enjoy. Before you hit the road, it's important to make sure your vehicle is prepared to handle all conditions when logging hundreds of miles.

Spring Break Safety Tips

Spring Break Safety Tips

MT. PLEASANT, Mich.,–– Heading off on a spring break vacation soon? Whether you are on a college break or taking a trip with the family, we want to ensure your safety while you are having fun away from home! Before the relaxation kicks in, it's important to make sure you are prepared for everything along the way. Make this year's trip one to remember and enjoy your time away by following these spring break safety tips:


1. Consider travel insurance.
If you're leaving the country, it may be wise to purchase travel insurance. Most health policies don't cover you if you leave U.S. soil. A good travel insurance policy will cover illness, injury, and emergency evacuation coverage.

2. Embrace the buddy system.
Whether you're headed somewhere close or far away, it's important to always use the "buddy system" in unfamiliar settings. Just because a place may seem safe, doesn't mean it necessarily is. Be prepared and always have a friend or family member with you wherever you venture to.

3. Bring another form of identification.
It's very easy for an ID to get lost or stolen, which is why it's so important to make sure you have some other form of identification with you, whether it be a student ID, old driver's license, or even a copy of your passport.

4. Prepare for the sun.
If you're going somewhere warm, make sure to pack sunscreen and aloe vera, no matter how well you may tan. The sun's rays are very powerful and even if you may think you're okay, there's still a chance you will get burnt. A nasty sunburn or sickness could ruin your whole trip. The same goes for sunglasses. Protect your eyes with the proper UV protection!

5. Avoid staying on the first floor.
Staying in a hotel? Try to refrain from getting a room on the first floor. It is a much bigger target for thieves! Store any valuables you brought with you in a secure location such as a safe.

6. Carry phone numbers and cash.
It's always a good idea to carry emergency cash and phone numbers of cab companies with you at all times. Make sure to include the address of your hotel or place you are staying at with you as well. It's better to be safe than sorry!

7. Do your research.
Read up on where you are going before you leave and pre-arrange transportation from the airport to your destination. The more you are prepared, the easier it will be. It's best to stay alert and know your surroundings ahead of time to ensure you remain safe throughout your entire trip!


It's critical to take the necessary safety measures beforehand no matter where you're traveling to. Making arrangements before and during your stay will ensure a memorable and enjoyable trip. Follow our list of spring break safety tips to help you prepare before you head out to your vacation destination! Taking a road trip instead of flying? Get your vehicle into gear by making sure routine maintenance is performed. If your ride is in need of service, schedule an appointment with our team before you leave. We are here to make certain your car is ready to handle the road ahead and keep you safe along the way!
