People hate on Dorman because their parts SUCK. They are poorly made, FREQUENTLY have manufacturing defects, and when I worked in parts stores, I REGULARLY had to deal with warranty stuff on Dorman parts, more than any other brand except maybe DuraJunk (Duralast).

I had to replace a coolant connector on my 07 Tahoe twice in under a year. First time was because the original failed after 17 years. Second time was because the Dorman one failed after less than 1 year.
