The J.D. Power Auto Financing team is unveiling one more glimpse of the data before the U.S. Dealer Financing Satisfaction Study publishes on August 4, 2022. Our last sneak peek discussed the importance of using dealer preferred channels of communication. In this final, pre-publish preview we share the year-over-year changes from the 2021 study.
2022 J.D. Power U.S. Dealer Financing Satisfaction Study
In the 2021 J.D. Power US Dealer Financing Satisfaction Study, captive lenders and their bank competitors were nearly identical in satisfaction scores with captive lenders having a slight edge. After surveying over 3,500 dealers, banks have made substantial improvements in 2022, with a 14-point increase in satisfaction year-over-year.
Banks also significantly improved year-over-year on the factors that drive overall satisfaction, including the funding process, the most heavily weighted factor, by 22-points.
