I was not totally surprised but noticed a graph. Based on that recent graph it looks like Toyota is very much leading the pack in many ways. Toyotas Lexus is so far above average it looks isolated in comparison to all.

The graph was unusual in that it gives the expected range of problems with each brand plus the expected amount. The range of expected Toyota issues is very small.. At least in comparison to any other brand.

Although Toyota has said they may have to reduce quality to keep their cars within a sellable price range. I hope they do not implement that.

Honda has been having some problems for awhile now. It has fallen off to number six on the list because of this. Again that graph has nothing to do with sales or the percentage of market share.

I think the one surprise was Ford is not building a consistant quality at any level. Some of their products must be almost total garbage while some are decent.

Or you as an owner may find no consistency of problems in comparison. Even if a neighbor buys the same model vehicle one of the cars may be a servicing disaster and another pretty decent.

This to me is a somewhat new problem but makes buying ford products too risky as there is no way to know what they are delivering to you.

What that graph does indicate though is that Toyota has earnt the best selling car in the world status. Although the aspect of cheapen down the product may have already started. .
