I came across this weird article and was wondering if anyone knew anything about it?

It says:

"What's happening at Nissan's Canton, Mississippi factory? The big news in the 2006 Consumer Reports New Car Preview--which features a large-sample reliability survey--is that the vehicles built at this plant have dreadful reliability records. Their repair histories are so bad CR has to use a broken bar to fit them on its chart! The Nissan Quest minivan has a reliability score of 133% worse than average."

It goes on to talk more about some problems with the plant, you can read the rest here:

Is this anything to be concerned about?

Yea if you drive a Nissan minivan. But if you drive a minivan, you have something to worry about regardless.
