Toyota makes rubbish?
Compared to what?
You might want to cut back on whatever is causing delusions...
Toyota doesn’t make rubbish but they’re not what they used to be. Something changed along about 2008 or so, the build quality slipped.

You might wanna cut back on whatever it is that makes you lash out like I’m an idiot.
I am a founder of the Old Celicas Club in 1991. I have owned 25 Celicas, 14 Supras, 6 Corollas, 4 Tercels, 4 4Runners, 2 trucks, and even the first-year JDM direct import of a Rav4. I’ve had articles written about my builds, been invited to speak at regional dealers and factory meetings. I had a 79 Celica with 600,000 miles on it. And yes, it rusted apart.
The newer cars, such as the Yaris were dangerous and should have been fully recalled because when you hit the brakes, the ass-end picks up and it almost flips forward. A dangerous, dangerous POS. The modern trucks rust just like the 80s ones do.
My friend picked up a 2014 Corolla in the spring of 2014. He wound up getting every penny back after 4 months because the floor boards had rusted apart from the frame. And his sunroof leaked. It leaked because it rolled off the dealer floor with rust near the sunroof.
The new vans have this interesting issue where the rear doors just come up. While you’re driving. The fix is to disable the power door motors so it doesn’t happen again. New trucks are so plagued by rust that lawsuits are just being settled left and right.
2010 Camry came into the Scranton dealer with a shorted ECU. It shorted because rust near the windshield developed into a leak right onto the circuitry.. Resulting in a complete shut-down at speed on the highway. No electrical at all. Steering, lights, nothing. No hazards. People almost died.
Then the fires that plague the Prius. Concentrated so much on the electrical wires and current-carrying stuff that they ignored the brake booster that pops when you hit something - causing a fire.
These cars are complete pieces of sh!t. My older Toyotas were the best in the world. But after 91 they became the biggest, most popular number-1 selling hunks of junk there is.
