Googling "toyota quality control issues" returns news about a recall of 1.75 million cars. So it seems the "reliable" brands have the same problems. Unless we can quantify it better, it's hard to compare.

Unfortunately Tesla aren't part of this study.

Except when Toyota does a recall, its just a note in the mail and a little extra work at your next service appointment.

When Tesla does a recall, its a major headline news story and fodder for many forum trolls to use in their rants against the company. (plus, a notice and a little extra work at your next service appointment)
