Tbh I was already no longer considering them. My previous car was GM and got junked before 10 years were up. Now I'm driving a Nissan still going strong (edit: on year 10 right now), haven't even had any major problem yet (knock on wood). By year 7, the GM had a replacement engine, clutch and starter. And I was living with the fuel gauge not resetting to zero properly when it started so having no idea how much fuel was in the tank until the low fuel light came on.
This experience has been so much better that it will take a lot to get me to consider an American brand over a Japanese one.
