I don't think its fair to overgeneralize American quality as poor. The most reliable vehicles sold in the USA are made in the USA (Camry, Tundra, Civic, Accord, etc).

I have an 02 3.4 tundra. How can I tell if my engine and tranny were built in Japan or the US? From what I was told, both the engine and tranny were built in japan and then shipped over to the us. The truck's final assembly was in indiana (i think). Thx for the help.
