This is true for EVERY single car forum out there. People are much more likely to voice their concern when something doesn't work.

Do you ever have forums where every message is a "today I took my car out, everything worked fine, it was great!"

No, you won't, because a) that makes boring chat, and b) driving a car around and having it work is something you expect it to do. When it doesn't work as it should, people post about it and either slam the car, or try to find out how to fix the issue.

Even very reliable roadsters like the MX5/Miata and S2000 forums are full of people saying "my aircon stopped working, my radiator is leaking, my engine doesn't crank..." and yet these cars are supposed to be twice as reliable as the SLK.

In fact, I see a little less people moaning about problems on this forum then on some other automotive forums, and most of the problems are usually in the very beginning anyway when companies try to fix out kinks in their new cars.
