Ford is experiencing a significant reputational recovery in 2025-2026, highlighted by a dramatic jump in J.D. Power rankings and recognition as the top mainstream brand for the first time since 2010. News coverage emphasizes improved quality control, EV retail execution, and strong reliability ratings, though the brand faces ongoing headwinds from AI-related quality issues that required rehiring experienced engineers and from tariff-driven price increases on popular models.
Quality and Reliability Renaissance
Ford jumped from 25th to 17th in reputation rankings in Q1 2025 and was named the top mainstream automotive brand in the 2026 J.D. Power Initial Quality Study, the first such honor since 2010.
