Your general point is an industry wide problem. Look at the JD Powers surveys that the automakers like to cite (when they win or pay to win): they base them on very short term surveys.
Of course, the general public/new car buyer runs on a "replace it every three years" philosophy - so for some, even those short term surveys work. I use to know a guy who bought a new car every three years and liked to say "I sell them before they need any maintenance". He thought he was saving money with that strategy :-)
