USAd cars

I’ve been doing a bit of research after speaking to you and taking your advice. I wanted to know if the Corsa and Fiesta are American built. Also I wanted to ask is it true that American built cars are not built to be reliable and are usually expected to be replaced after 3 years?

Corsas are built in Zaragoza, most Fiestas in Valencia. (Polos are built in Pamplona.) So they're Spanish, not American. Basically all new cars are built to last 7 years. If they last longer, that's a bonus.
