In the 70s, when the japanese started making inroads in the US, detroit sold junk. I mean junk. Body panels that didn't match, cars that rusted...these cars were so bad...and they have been playing catch up ever since. That's why they lost not some share, but a LOT of share...and their reputation with it. Hyundai, which had the reputation of building the worst POS in existence, has been able to chip away at American car makers market share during a time when the American car had a far better reputation than Hyundai did. You figure it out.
