It's simple: Manufacturers have figured out that we put price above quality. They will produce a product as cheaply as they can and still sell it. Of course that doesn't mean they sell it for a cheaper price that they would charge for a quality product; they charge whatever the market will bear and lower quality to maximize profit margin.

But that doesn't mean automakers won't cut corners where there's no perception of lost quality.
It is the manufacturer who has the final say regarding the quality of products going out the door. Workers in the US are capable of making products that are just as good as those coming out of Germany or Japan. As are many of the workers in Mexico and China. But if the manufacturer wants to produce a cheap product, you can hardly blame its employees for giving their employer what it wants.
