It's a "myth" I've experienced first hand. I've been driving Toyotas and Nissans since I was 16 (28 years ago - damn, didn't realize it was that long, lol!). I literally never had a single problem with any of them. I had 2 Celicas, a Tercel, an Altima, 2 Maximas and a Pathfinder.

3+ years ago I bit the bullet and bought 2 Fords. The Ranger went in for recall work twice and warranty repairs twice - in one year. Then it was totalled. Thank goodness I had GAP insurance because the value of it had dropped so much.

The Exploder has had 3 recalls and has been in for work 4 other times.

I literally had ZERO problems with the Toyotas and Nissans

I won't even get into the resale value of Ford against the imports......
