J.D.Power survey

J.D.Power survey
I received a letter from ACURA today with a J.D.Power survey inside, which I completed online. The 28 questions had nothing to do with satisfaction of the vehicle, but were only asking about my dealer experience. Half of the questions were regarding my satisfaction with the dealer from which we purchased, and the rest were about what other dealers we visited and why we didn't buy from them. Has anyone else received this survey?

You should write "HEY JD, STUFF IT UP YOUR ASS" on it in big, red letters, and send it back.
Seriously though...isn't it sad that JD Power surveys are, well, irrelevant, but the marketing of the awards is sooooo glamorous for the car companies...

i think the surveys or made so that they know which dealership is good so they can provide more cars to that dealership..
my acura dealership begged me to give them a perfect score, but i had the worse experience with them. bad customer service and bad saleperson. he was rude and treated me like i was some bad teenager. i was with my dad, i was the one who picked out the car and was the person that was going to buy the car. he practically ignored me the whole time and kept on asking my dad questions about the car, but my dad said he wasn't the one buynig the car so he should ask me.. sales guy didn't listen. he was really rude and pushy the whole time.
i'm 22 by the way.. i've bought a car before.

i'm skeptical.

As a side note, I saw 6 or 7 of their awards today (in a case in front of the main entrance) at the Toyota plant where I'm working.... They are kinda cool.

He's one of those awful communicators who leaves long pauses and makes you think he's fallen asleep or something. What a horrible experience (acura of orange park (Tampa, FL area))!!!
JD Power will be hearing about this guy for sure!
