Customers have purchased more than 110,000 new Ford Fiestas since the global debut last autumn.

Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles collectively reduced “things gone wrong” (TGW) by 7.7 percent compared to last year and are now statistically equivalent with Honda (including Acura) and Toyota (including Lexus and Scion) atop the list of seven major automakers in the survey.

Update
Ford’s hybrid operations will also soon be getting a boost from AT&T. The telecommunications firm announced on Wednesday that it will be purchasing $565 million worth of hybrids and natural gas-powered vehicles from Ford over the next 10 years. AT&T says the commitment is not only to reduce its environmental impact but to also jump-start the U.S. economy.
