That's right, I think that Honda parts are "made in china"
That is just plain racist and not welcome here.
Some parts manufactured in china are known for their questionable quality (that's just a fact) = AT the moment the Honda PU is of questionable quality. (also a fact)
See the analogy

Serious? There are parts in the Honda PU that are made in China?!
Btw, all my iphones, ipads, and iMac's are made in China and they are absolutely bulletproof.
I have seen first hand the best of Chinese manufacturing in micro electronics, and in many cases the Chinese production engineers tell me product failures are due to inherent design problems.
"In 2007, the world woke up to what Chinese consumers had long contended with, when a number of Western multinationals, including toymaker Mattel, were forced to recalls all sorts of tainted or faulty China-made products. While regulators tightened policies and many corporate risk managers swung into action as a result, there is still no getting away from the fact that "some Chinese industries suffer quality problems — especially in food, where stories of contaminated or adulterated foodstuffs simply do not go away, despite numerous government initiatives to correct the problem," says Wharton management professor Marshall W. Meyer.
Other industries — notably consumer electronics — are doing a better job of raising the bar. "Chinese companies that are playing at the higher end of the market understand slightly better how manufacturing works," notes Paul Midler, a consultant and author of Poorly Made in China. Yet those companies seem to be in the minority."Many manufacturers are not interested in making a quality product and building a long-term reputation," he says."

That was ten years ago. So much has changed since then. I'm sure 75% of what you use in your day to day life is made in China, and those items are likely functioning just fine.
