I used to commute into work for 14 years then got a job driving a box truck making deliveries because the office just sucked so much.... But, even in MA where we have yearly safety inspections i'd still see cars on the side of the highway, stopped on the left side of the highway, dead in a tunnel after a bump, etc, with busted lower ball joints causing the wheel to flop up, fallen apart wheel bearings causing the entire wheel to fall off, busted tie rod sending them into a guardrail... It's crazy how little people care about their car. None of those issues show up overnight, and most make a lot of nasty noise for quite a while. Getting a wheel bearing to completely fall apart takes a while.

I would have to agree with you on this one. My dad was a amazing mechanic and did amazing work, on other peoples cars of course😂. He should have been certified in afro enginuity when it came to our cars😂. If me or my sisters car had A/C before he worked on it it didnt after wards lol. Plus extra parts that we "didnt need". He did a top rebuild on my 01 venture. I was unaware it had California emissions. Well it did before he worked on it😂. He taught me so much and I can proudly say I do all of my own repairs. I am no super certified mechanic and there is repairs Ive never done. But I give it my all, reach out for help, dont try to be a know it all and continue to learn new things. I just did a motor swap on my 05 Malibu V6. I asked a ton of questions but basically did all the work myself. Now Im having an electrical problem and I would much rather give birth than deal with electrical😂. It had issues before I got it and only have it because it was free. The dick who did the work on this car before me I hope he stubbs his toe everyday in life. Every bolt that could possibly been put on with a power wrench or impact he did and without antiseeze.

Because the bedazzled ring being made of a ferrous metal was interrupting the field made by the coil loop on the tumbler assembly. That loop imparts EMF to the small loop in the chip key chip. When energizing happens properly, the chip in the chip key is energized and the chip sends back the code to the tumbler assembly and the computer authorizes the key by checking for that particular unique code and then allows the car to start. In summary, the chip was not getting energized by EMF.

Pulled into a parking lot, and got out my tire pressure gauge (which I have in all our vehicles). All four tires had 106 psi in them, a little over the recommended 35 psi!

What’s worse, is she didn’t make the connection, it didn’t dawn on her that the key stopped working when she added the grip thing. She couldn’t understand what one had to do with the other? She had that look on her face that she thought I was feeding her a load of crap. I didn’t even charge her anything.

they whine, they bitch, they complain we are trying to sell them shit... and then they drive off part of the time. "so and so can do it cheaper!" or "i can fix it myself!" etc. the smarter ones buckle down and get the repairs, or admit the vehicle is toast. just had a lady in with a 2001 malibu, hubby told her it was toast, to not waste money repairing it and use that money to buy something better. needed new tires all around new brakes and rotors all around - several lines were bad so probably those as well the drivers seat was busted, the floor attachment area was nothing but rust on one side at least one control arm and wheel bearing misfiring- sounded like an old lawnmower body was trashed, rusted, front end and hood dented in but the kicker... couldn't run it more than 5 mins without it overheating with clouds of steam... head gasket or cracked block. we didn't bother to finish diagnosing at that point and that's when we told her it wasn't worth it. she had it towed to midas to get them to do the repairs... which will probably be 3x what we would charge if we were willing to do the work.

It was sitting in a plastic bag for TWO WEEKS in Florida during the summer, and we didn't realize what the horrid smell was for about four or five days until I checked the trunk and found it. Took me MONTHS to get that smell out of the car, and the false-bottom spare tire cover was ruined.

The mismatched tyres remind me of my dad's 05 Trailblazer he got in late January or early February of this year for a couple thousand. All the rims are stock... But the tyres are 245/70R16s on all but the front driver's side. The front driver's side has the stock width and what have you, which is 235/70R16. Might need to sort that out eventually, as well as the rough shift from 1 to 2.
