I believe that Consumer Reports does take "bribes" but they don't word it as that. I worked for a company that they always gave bad reviews to our products. We never understood the faults because they weren't there.
My sister had one of them Nissan it was a good car till a ram trx t-boned it she had it for awhile
Wish I could like your videos more than just a single like.
The wealth of information in your videos is par none.
Thank you so much for your service!
Consumer Reports buys cars from dealers just like you do and tests them. They survey readers to predict reliability. In the 2018 Annual Auto Issue, the rated the Toyota Corolla the most reliable compact sedan and was their top pick.
Scotty: Consumer Reports auto test site is on your way to Rhode Island in Colchester, CT. Perhaps you can schedule a tour! Their ratings sadly do not take into account long term reliability which is very important to us.
My wife and I love the pictures up in the right hand corner. The horse and cat are hilarious!
I don’t trust CR either.
Nissan IS a Japanese company. I'd drive one before any domestic, Korean or European car. And the GTR godzilla is always a good choice. Economy cars sux from every company. Just saying.
Always thought Consumer Reports was unreliable.
Well, Scotty, did you read the report? The reason for this was that the Sentra performed better on the road then did the Corolla…substantially better. The overall score (which was 77 for the Sentra and 73 for the Corolla) was skewed by the LARGE difference in the way the two vehicles drove. In overall owner satisfaction, the Corolla was well above the Sentra. May I respectfully recommend that before you once again slam the only organization in the country that tests vehicles and is completely independent of manufacturer's influence, that you read the entire article instead of glancing at a final score and going off half-cocked about it.
