Our POV's/HO's are based in part on our experiences.
Having three major recalls, a water pump failure, a head gasket failure sort of leaves a port taste in my mouth

Those are the problems that I recall.
And, at the time, being told that I could take or leave the price I was given still bothers me.
And do not get me started on my mom's 800S.
All cars has wear and tear issues.
All cars should be maintained.
Every car type, model, brand, year et al is going to have great cars as well as lemons.
Thus there are those out there who love their car, as well as those who hate it.
The US manufactures have lost at least a generation of car buyers for many reason. Some of their own doing and/or making.
They have a hill to climb to get them back.
