The J.D. Power Asia Pacific 2013 India Customer Service Index (CSI) Study, for the first time measures after-sales experience satisfaction separately in two segments – luxury and mass market, measures satisfaction among luxury vehicle owners who visit an authorized dealership service centre for maintenance or repair work between the first 12 to 24 months of ownership. The study measures overall satisfaction in five factors (listed in order of importance): service quality; vehicle pick-up; service advisor; service facility; and service initiation. Overall customer satisfaction is measured on a 1,000-point scale, with a higher score indicating higher satisfaction.
Overall luxury customer satisfaction with their dealership service experience averages 876 in 2013. BMW ranks highest among luxury brands in customer satisfaction with a score of 892. BMW performs particularly well in the service advisor factor. The 2013 India Customer Service Index Study for the luxury segment is based on evaluations from 238 vehicle owners. The study was fielded from May to August 2013 and includes owners who purchased their vehicle between May 2011 and August 2012.
