Lincoln and Buick Top Customer Satisfaction List

Domestic car manufacturers top the list of the American Consumer Satisfaction Index for the first time in the study's 15-year history, with Ford and General Motors taking the top spots.

In a press release, the study explains that Ford and GM's Lincoln-Mercury and Buick nameplates took the lead for the first time ever.

Chrysler, however, continues to under-perform, with two of its three divisions at the bottom.

While the top U.S. brands finished just three points ahead from the best-performing imports, customer satisfaction with Japanese and Korean cars dropped the most from last year's survey, largely due to vehicle recalls.
