Consumer Reports rates anything non-Japanese as bad. Really anything non-Toyota/Honda.
Those reliability reports are compiled from reports that almost 1.3 million subscribers have filled out and sent in. It's not from some road tests or some editor's particular bias. Consumer Reports accepts no advertising, so there are no advertisers toes to avoid stepping on.
And as far as them not saying anything bad about Toyota/Honda, definitely not true. Note this recent statement from Consumer Reports:
"Toyota’s previously sterling reliability has slipped a bit, and two Toyota models, the V6 Camry and the four-wheel-drive, V8 version of the Tundra, have below-average reliability in their 2007 redesign. The all-wheel-drive version of the Lexus GS also dropped below average. We now predict below-average reliability for all three models and can no longer recommend them."
