No, the misapplication of basic statistics is yours in concluding that one data point in a small sample size must be significant. The opposite is true.

Significance in a magazine article != statistical significance, which is unfortunately very hard to come by in the real world. Simply put, I'm willing to give more credence to a car magazine talking about never having encountered a problem like this before in a pool of vehicles than random commenters on HN.
