The multicollinearity check targets to decide whether or not withinside the regression version there may be a correlation among impartial variables Multicollinearity approach that there may be an ideal dating among a few or all the variables that designate the regression version. The foundation for seeing a version that isn't suffering from multicollinearity is to examine the Variance Inflation Factor VIF) and the tolerance level. If VIF> 5 and Tolerance <0.1, then multicollinearity is affected, but if VIF <5 and Tolerance> 0.1, then there is no multicollinearity problem in this study. The test results can be seen as follows:

Multiple linear regression analysis is used to determine how much influence the independent variable X) which consists of Tangible / Physical Evidence X1), Reliability X2), Responsiveness X3), Assurance X4), and Empathy / Empathy X5) towards the dependent variable Y), namely Customer Satisfaction Situmorang and Lutfi, 2012: 146).
CONCLUSION
Based on the data in Table 8, the multiplelinear regression equationmodelcan be formulated as follows: Y = 3,947 + 0,268 X1 + 0,193 X2 – 0,009 X3 + 0,321 X4 + 0,077 X5
From this equation it can be described: i) Constant = 3,947. This shows a constant level, where if the Tangible X1), Reliability X2), Responsiveness X3), Assurance X4) and Empathy X5) variables are 0, then customer satisfaction Y) on the Port Authority and Port Authority services Class II Pontianak amounted to 3,947. ii) The coefficient b1 X1) = 0.268. This shows that the Tangible variable X1) has a positive effect on Customer Satisfaction, or in other words, if the Tangible variable is increased, then the customer satisfaction of the Port Authority and Port Authority of Class II Pontianak will increase by 0.268 assuming the
other variables are fixed. iii) The coefficient b2 X2) = 0.193. This shows that the Reliability X2) variable does not have a significant effectonCustomer Satisfaction, or in other words, if the Reliability variable increases, then the customer satisfaction has no effect. iv) The coefficient b3 X3) = -0.009. This shows that the Responsiveness variable X3) does not have a significant effecton Customer Satisfaction, or in other words, if the Responsiveness variable increases, then the customer satisfaction has no effect. v) The coefficient b4 X4) = 0.321. This shows that the Assurance variable X4) has a positive effect on Customer Satisfaction, or in other words, if the Assurance variable increases, then the customer satisfaction of the Port Authority and Port Authority of Class II Pontianak will increase by 0.321 assuming other variables remain. vi) The coefficient of b5 X5) = 0.077. This shows that the Empathy variable X5) does not have a significant effecton Customer Satisfaction, or in other words, if the Empathy variable increases, then the customer satisfaction has no effect.
