And yes i do agree that the newer American cars are getting more reliable. And it doesnt hurt that the most recent race i went to a cobalt just took off the 2nd lap.
I would be hesitant to make a reliability judgment about any car based on an experience with a rental. I would be more peeved with the rental company than Ford, obviously those vehicles were not very well cared for.
