Lear Corporation, a global automotive technology leader in seating and e-systems, has received two first-place J.D. Power 2022 US Seat Quality and Satisfaction StudySM awards. In addition, Lear placed among the top three in four award-eligible categories. Lear's overall quality score reinforced its position as a quality leader in seat satisfaction.

"Once again, Lear's ability to deliver the quality, design and features which consumers demand, is recognised by the JD Power awards," said Frank Orsini, executive vice president and president, Seating. "We are very proud of the teams in our just-in-time manufacturing plants, quality assurance and engineering centres. Their dedication to delivering the highest standards of design and operational excellence is making every drive better for customers around the world."

The first place includes Mass Market Compact Car - Hyundai Elantra and Luxury Car - BMW 2 Series. The third place goes to Mass Market Compact SUV - Ford Bronco Sport and Jeep Compass (tie), Mass Market Truck - Chevrolet Silverado HD, Luxury Car - BMW 4 Series and Luxury SUV - BMW X3.

Conducted from February through May 2022, the 2022 US Seat Quality and Satisfaction Study is based on responses from 84,165 purchasers and lessees of new 2022 model-year vehicles. Seat quality is measured by the number of problems experienced per 100 vehicles (PP 100) during the first 90 days of ownership, with a lower score reflecting higher quality, the company said in a press release.
