And sadly, it would appear that one of the major issues is in fact US-based production. And you can't blame the unions even!

I do not represent GM, Todd. I have only quoted others here. I find it interesting, as it breaks down long-held opinions. If you recall, I even suggested the new Toyota RAV4 to you.
"......Goldman Sachs estimates that design faults (e.g. rubber parts not thick enough to withstand engine heat and joints too weak to hold together) account for 68% of Toyota’s 2004 recalls."
Based on this statement from an industry analyst, U.S.-based production isn't "one of the major factors".
