I notice a lot of you talk about foreign cars but only speak about Toyota and Honda. Makes me think I was right about my wife's decision to get another Nissan Pathfinder. She had one for about 9 years and decided she wanted new. The dealer she got the first one from was top notch, but couldn't meet the price of the dealer she bought the second one from, and that has made all the difference. The newer Nissan is a piece crap. The doors sound like disposable tinfoil pie pans when you close them. Had it in for 30K service recently and I asked them to also check the squeek I was hearing. They call back and say it needs a new fanbelt, but as usual with this place, they don't have it in stock. I say, "The car's barely 2 years old. How can it need a new fanbelt? What caused it to go?" The guy says, "I'm surprised it lasted this long. It's pretty common" WTF! In my mind for anything that's mass produced you'd like to think new means perfect, but no matter the brand you always have lemons. Fortunately for me, I've owned an Escort, a Ranger and and F150 SuperCrew since 1983 and never had a problem with any of them.
