Need a little help guys

Looking for a little help in rounding up all the links to ALL the quality reports that independent companies do.
I know that JD Power is the biggest, but there are others. Scott quotes them from time to time, but I can't remember them.

So if I could get a little help with the links (including JD Power) I would appreciate it.
Maybe we should get these all together and put them in one stickied post, so that we can refer to them quickly.

Thanks.

Thanks jrp4uc, but not quite what I was looking for.
JD Power does 2 nice studies. One for initial quality and one for long term quality. It basically ranks the brands by defects per 100 or 1000 cars. And then it organizes them in a list from best to worst. That's what I'm looking for.

And I'll NEVER quote Consumer Reports. It's no secret that their readers are mostly import owners nor is it any secret that they favor Japanese vehicles over all others.

And there are other companies that do quality surveys. Is Harbour one of them? I'd be interested in those, also.

I believe Harbour does the vehicle factory efficiency studies.

Z28Wilson,
I thought that's all they did but wasn't sure. Thanks.

Damn, where's Scott when you need him.
