So the latest report came out with software bugs being the biggest complaint now.

One interesting note is that Mini is still at the bottom of the quality pile and for those that talk about how Great MB and BMW are, Caddilac again beats them on Quality.

So what gives, is this just bashing to bash or is the study that flawed?

Sound off and tell me what you think!

Sounds like they need better QA efforts. Software bugs are the bane of my work life...(my bugs, bugs in other people's code, etc).

There was a story that all Automakers were on the hunt for QA software engineers. This was their biggest area of growth.

Part of the problem in software engineering in general is it seems very few people actually like doing QA work..those that are very good at it and enjoy it are tough to find. I know as a developer and architect I prefer to work on the design, implementation, and deployment aspects...

True, but for those of us that love to test, we can make a very good living at it finding the bugs!

True enough..good testers are hard to find but very valuable on projects, esp. big complex ones like I seem to end thrown in..
