The J.D. Power Dealer of Excellence program is independently administered by J.D. Power.

To achieve inclusion in the shortlist for the award, dealerships must satisfy requisite scores in Renault UK’s customer satisfaction programme for their 2014 performance.

J.D. Power has been capturing and analysing the voice of the customer across more than a dozen industries globally for more than 45 years. It aims to truly represent the voice of the customer to drive improvement of products and services, and ultimately business results, for companies globally.
