The report shows brands like Buick, Cadillac and Lincoln-Mercury dropping compared to Honda and Lexus &mdash; directly contradicting <a href="http://jalopnik.com/cars/vehicle-quality/toyota-drops-in-consumer-reports-annual-car-reliability-survey-ford-improves-311751.php">Consumer Reports</a> and <a href="http://jalopnik.com/395078/2008-chevy-malibu-refuses-to-be-ignored-tops-jd-power-initial-quality-survey">JD Power</a> surveys that show American cars on the rise.
