Pieces of junk - U.S. automakers take three out of four of the bottom slots for reliability, according to Consumer Reports.  Suck on that, Ford taunted Suzuki.  Honda laughs from on high.

My old man's Chrysler Fifth Avenue never ran right and, after sending a barrage of angry letters to Chrysler, he sold it at a significant loss.  Soon afterwards he gave me this advice: "Never buy an American car."  I actually drive a Pontiac Vibe only because it's made on the same assembly line as the Toyota Matrix and - surprise, surprise - Consumer Reports lists it as one of the few American cars with good reliability.
