_Car_ magazine had an article some months ago about Japan having taken the
reliability crown away from Germany. It seems a great deal of the reason is the
Japanese automakers really crack the whip on the component suppliers. The German
mfrs are now trying to play catchup in this department, but they aren't there
yet.
