Our trusted mechanics at Brake-O-Rama see all kind of automobiles and they have a good sense of what is made and where. Yesterday I asked our mechanic at Brake-O-Rama Lodi New Jersey which were the least American made cars. He investigated on Yahoo, Google, and various internet sites, and also confirmed his suspicions after many years of working on cars in the USA.
ALOT of the cars on the list are good automobiles, and even though they are not primarily made in the USA our mechanics like these cars, as well as Brake-O-Rama customers that bring them in for us to service.

At Brake-O-Rama, our experienced mechanics think it is interesting to see where car parts are manufactured. This list shows that “Made in America” is really becoming less and less…Not that there’s anything wrong with that. Some of the most technologically advanced and reliable vehicles on the road are made in plants owned and operated by foreign manufacturers either stateside or overseas.
