I think this may be a US thing. Fords built in Europe are pretty decent. Reliable (compared with most other makes), cheap parts and ubiquitous servicing. I've bought Fords (in the UK) for about the last 20 years and have in the main been very satisfied.

Fords have a really bad name in Australia. The cheapest Hyundai will outlast even a high end Ford. But in terms of reliability, here Toyota is king

  That's fair. Got stung by that a couple of years ago. Fortunately there are plenty of models without that.

Ford is not as protected from competition in Europe.
