Consumer Reports said a couple years ago that Panasonic was the #1 most reliable brand and Olympus was a little below average. FWIW I own two Oly E-M1's and have had rear dial trouble with one but not the other so far.

Consumer reports statistics like that are no more scientifically reliable then a poll on this forum.  The get their data form people reporting to them, typically they are part of their "source" for information that is not more randomly selected the me asking people who go to my local Kroger store.
