F-150 Reputation Resistant to Rust, Fire, and More. Why?

In the last 5 years, the Toyota Tundra has had some serious quality issues:

1. Frame rust problems
2. Weak tailgates
3. Unintended acceleration recalls

While this list is definitely bad, can anyone honestly argue that it’s worse than the F150’s list of problems?

1. 1.5 million trucks recalled for spontaneously exploding airbags
2. Faulty cruise control modules that have been linked to dozens of vehicle fires
3. 2+ million trucks likely to be recalled for rusting fuel tank straps

Granted, Ford has yet to recall the F-150 for rusting fuel tank straps, but all signs point to an imminent recall.

The question is: In light of all of this info, how can anyone honestly argue that Tundra’s reputation for quality or safety is any worse than the best-selling truck in the industry, the Ford F-150?
