As Reuters points out, a big gap in reliability scores has emerged between mass market brands like Kia and luxury brands like BMW. In fact, J.D. Power says the gap in its Vehicle Dependability Study is the widest the consultancy firm has ever seen in the 34 years of its existence.

The reason why these owners of modern luxury cars are so dissatisfied has everything to do with all the fancy onboard technologies included on their ride.
