Engine problem comparisons

Hope this hasn't already been posted. I found it interesting. Dodge seems to have little problems. Even the gassers had few problems but the check engine light bumped the number higher than it should be. I bad gas cap is a common cause of the check engine light on Dodge gassers. The Cummins comes out looking great! Compare the types of problems more than just the total number of complaints.

Interesting article! My question would be why does the Silverado have so many more complaints than the Sierra? I thought they were the same?

This same topic was mentioned at The Diesel Stop. A few of the members there say that it is geared to make Ford look bad.
