I don't know much about cars, but in the circles I run Honda and Nissan have vastly different reputations. Hondas are up there with Toyota as far as reliability and frugality whereas Nissans are kind-of junky and fall apart. Is that still accurate? If so, how do companies handle such different levels of quality when they merge?

It's Boeing-McDonnell all over again. I guess Honda might have the upper hand here, since Nissan only has the Leaf and the trucks to bring to the table.

Wondering the same. Don't see what Honda gains from bringing Nissan into its fold.

Nissan made overbuild cars all the way to nineties. Not bulletproof, there were plenty of oversights and bad decisions (Patrol RD28/ZD30), but mostly they at lest tried to build tough. Then Renault financial engineering brought us uninspiring cars for rental fleets. Most models build to last lease period/100K miles and not much more. After that its engine/CVT gearbox swap/rebuild.
