I am sure Ford's ok, for a while, but I haven't bought any American vehicles in the past 15 years. Why? Because their quality and longevity is lousy compared to Honda, Toyota, Subaru, and Nissan. Don't believe me? Check Consumer Reports Auto Buying Guide. It's all there. Unless Honda has nosedived on their quality, you just can't go wrong with the Pilot.
Full disclosure: I have owned a 1991 Honda Civic that I kept as a daily driver from 2005-2010. I then got a 2004 Nissan Frontier and a 1998 Honda Accord for my new wife. I have no worries about my lovely wife driving an old car. It's a Honda, after all.
