Well I think the self evident answer is that the forum becomes a pretty bad place to ask a question about an FCA product with a quality concern.
Now, if there's all these people that are doing it, then at some point you need to ponder, even if it's only to yourself, whether or not the group is on to something...
It's how it's received, which actually played out like clockwork in this thread.
Literally 2nd post in this thread:

My guess is the R-1234YF pressure expansion, these noise complaints started appearing on cars that use the new ac refrigerant it seems. Just my guess!
Which everybody completely ignored and the anti-FCA trolls showed up and then the pile-on begins. That's how it ALWAYS goes, even if its just a basic question about how somebody likes their vehicle, somebody's sister-cousin from the hills of Tennessee, her uncle-dad's first wife's father from the Hinterland once had a Dart, and it didn't have a big block, so it was a pile and nobody in that entirely branchless family tree ever bought another Chrysler product again.
Comparatively, there's a thread about a Toyota with a transmission that shifts like a tweaker on meth and "it's all fine" it's just "buggy software" Toyota will take care of you or "that's unusual my 1982 Corolla was perfect, Toyota is the best".
The direction the threads take are COMPLETELY different. It's not because the FCA topics are comparatively awful, it's because you have the same group of soiled knickers sliding in and turning it into the monkey cage at your local zoo.
