Nop. It is because the J-K cars work well and don't break.

It is very easy for manufacturers to get on the top ten/twenty list... build good product. It is that simple.

My car prior to my X3 was a Honda Accord and nothing broke or failed in 8+ years and 230K kms... nothing Add gas, change the oil and brakes and the car never failed.

If BMW builds cars that way they'd make the list too.

I can only think of three reasons for it- either non J-K car makers are so inept technologically they can't compete, or CR has a conscious or unconscious bias towards J-K cars, or the reporting methods are skewed or manipulated.
