Its easy to rely on reputation. From the late 80s till about 2000, Japanese cars were awesome, particularly their compacts, subcompacts and midsizes (and they were largely built in Japan). Nowadays, they've settled in, allowed Americans/Canadians a chance to (poorly) assemble their cars, utilized the same cheap building material, and as a result, have comparable ratings to the same North American cars they used to trounce.
