Among models whose owners reported the least satisfaction are the Nissan Versa sedan (49%), V-6-powered Chevy Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 pickup trucks (tied at 51%) and the Nissan Armada and Mitsubishi Outlander SUVs and Suzuki SX4 hatchback (tied at 52%).

The magazine notes that a brand's nationality was not a factor: The top-scorers included 16 American, 14 Asian and 14 European models.
