Fully agree with the statistical issue of forums, but i think most are aware of it. You can even see the total number of vote isn’t really high.
What i can say though is that i browse this forum on at least a weekly basis, and there is about a new person reporting a coolant leak issue per two week on average on the other two threads on this topic. I still can’t figure out statistically if this is a large percentage or not, but it is definitely trending in the wrong direction in my opinion. Remember that there is also a large percentage of people not reporting on forums and using Facebook or reddit instead.
But i agree. Forums are a concentration of concerns and we shouldn’t panic about it, but it allows people to identify potential problems and address them early. For example, i had the screen spider web crack happen on my 2018 and i caught it 2 weeks before the end of my 3 years warranty because i new what to look for and that it wad serious thanks to the forum.
