You get down voted but it's true. The reason people believe Japanese cars (specifically the ones built in Japan) are built better is because the employees are not unionized combined with traditional beliefs about the Japanese refusing to half ass anything. Unions exist to allow people to be lazier than they would otherwise be able to be. This is great from the perspective of the worker, but from the perspective of the consumer, unionized or companies are generally not going to treat them as well...
