So why does Consumer Reports say that GM's overall quality is on par
with non-union (at least in the US) Nissan's?

Why has CR given bad reliability marks for two non-union made Japanese
vehicles, the Nissan Titan (Mississippi) and the 4WD Toyota Tundra
(Texas)?

Which union members designed crappy cars for Detroit, especially those
furniture-like GM cars?

The car makers were free to reject the union's demands and free to
employ the workers more efficiently.
