"Customer States" Cmpilation [PART 2]- Mechanical Fails Compilation 2021

my car could kill someone if im not careful. it cant go above 3100 rpm and most mechanics I talk to say they have no idea on why its doing it. I cant get up to highway speed and my num 2 cylinder is not firing as well. Its not good knowing that you are driving an unsafe car, but im too broke to get a new one.

With that attitude you had no business taking their money. I don't make fun of people because they don't know how their car works, that's why we're the mechanic and they are out customers. That's like your heart surgeon saying you have no business owning your heart since you can't perform your own triple bypass.

[@jonathanfairchild]

@@beezertwelvewashingbeard8703 I think his point is people who can’t tell when they’re tires are off the rim shouldn’t drive. Drivers who can’t tell when their breaks have worn through shouldn’t drive. Anything like that goes beyond lacking mechanical skills and into the realm of sheer laziness or stupidity. Their car made really bad noises that were ignored. If you get into a fatality accident with brakes like we saw here you might be charged with criminal negligence or reckless driving. If you can’t tell when your car is making seriously concerning noises then you shouldn’t operate a 2000+ lb weapon.

@@beezertwelvewashingbeard8703 Let me make this simple so even you can understand it. The car is the second largest investment most people make. At least open the fucking owners manual and read it. If that were the case most of the stupidity we see in the shop would be eliminated. But most people, mainly men, think they already know everything they need too. Included in that 75% are people who don't drive a car they operate it like toaster or microwave. That is why their are so many fatal crashes on our hiway's. We need to be like Finland.It takes several years to get a license in Finland and before you do you have to show you can DRIVE the car on a skid pad with oil and water on the surface. And at very high speeds. I took no joy in seeing folks destroy their car out of ignorance because most of them could least afford it.

[@michaeldaigle7207]

So go out, take a look. How many miles has it been since an oil change? Whens the last time it had new brakes? How often does it get serviced in general? Are there any noises like banging, clunking, knocking, ticking, grinding? Any shake at low/high speeds? Do your tires have treads? Take it to a mechanic for a complete inspection if you have doubts. Ask them to put it up on a lift and check everything over. Its better to find problems as they develop rather than after they've caused an accident or damaged other parts of the vehicle.

[@lazarustheatv8389]

Well yes but actually no. In the same way that people should know how often their car needs an oil change the owner of that car should have known to have the timing belt replaced before it shredded. I can see something like a timing belt easily neglected though. I myself have been neglecting to change the coolant in my car which is overdue by about 5 years and 20,000 miles I think.

In Texas the "inspection" is a joke. they hook up to the computer, see the polution junk working fine. see if all your lights are working, and look at your wiper blades. thats it. they dont even look at tires. i took a car in once with cords showing on the front tires and they passed it.

The one with the water in the door gets me. I once had a convertible mustang. Complaint was they could hear a sloshing noise in rear seat. The rear quarter on both sides were plugged with a trash bag full of leaves and about 5 gallons of water each. It took all day of using a bent coat hanger to scraper the hole clear, let it drain for 5 minutes before it plugged up again and repeat. Once the water was out, I had to let it completely dry out over 3 days so i could use air blower to get all the debris out so it wouldn't happen again
