Yeah I gota disagree heavily with number 5. Especially in recent years the Sierra and Silverado have been great trucks. And I can't go a minute without seeing one on the road. Tons of them still running around.

Nothing they listed about the silverado have anything to do with "reliability".

Of the 3 American branded vehicles listed, only one has a single issue, the Fiesta has transmission concerns. Otherwise, all the "complaints" are just that... not problems or faults in realistic terms. The 2 foreign nameplates had a real list of things they claim actually are faulty. A "rough ride" isn't a defect, but sadly, clowns like that writer will get people thinking there's a real problem... because people are stupid!

Doesn't exactly look like a quality automotive journalism website. Some things you take with a grain of salt, this stuff you just plain ignore.

I just got a 2007 Silverado and I can't imagine them going backwards with it. The thing is almost ridiculously comfortable to drive. The interior is hard plastic yes but it is a darn truck not a luxury car.

"uncomfortable seats, tacky interiors, and low-quality suspension that makes for a jittery, jolting ride"

Um what does this have to do with reliability? What a uneducated, bogus article.

^ what he said. Any "worst" list without a 2002 Dodge Intrepid on there just doesn't count.

Maybe someone else can find it.

Seem that is was such a poor & inaccurate article, the author did not even bother to include his name.
