The Detroit Three automakers once again had a subpar performance in the latest Annual Auto Reliability study from Consumer Reports.

Bested by the Asian automakers, not one Detroit Three brand made the top 10 in the study, which was released Wednesday during an online press conference with the Automotive Press Association.

The top five brands in this year’s study are: Toyota Motor Corp.’s Lexus coming in at No. 1 followed by Toyota, BMW AG’s Mini, Honda Motor Co.’s Acura and Honda.

Ford Motor Co.’s Lincoln came in at No. 23, behind the Ford brand’s 22nd place.

Buick had the best results of the Detroit Three and among General Motors Co.’s four brands, coming in at No. 12. Cadillac took 16th place, Chevrolet 20th and GMC 24th.
