"Customer declined repairs and drove away" scariest phrase as a fellow road-user

[@gordocarbo]

Thats what left me baffled! Never changing the oil. had a boss who did that to an 88 toy truck. Pennywise ound foolish

[@timhansn362]

I must be stupid? When the fix it shop calls me the 2nd time about some repair I just tell them to fix what ever is needed and call when done. I trust my fix it shop. My guess the people that drove away don't have and can't barrow the money to fix it. Because they spent their money on booze , drugs and sex. Because I am a farmer they don't have a pound of beef in the freezer either.

[@michael-gk3ib]

As a Dane in Europe, it scares me and makes me angry that people in the US can just drive away from the workshop in a car that is not safe or suitable for driving on public roads. There are no regulations in the United States. I am sure that such irresponsible people have probably caused some accidents, and then with sweet results. In Europe, and especially in Denmark, where I live, it is illegal to drive on the road if your car is not in a working condition. So if a customer wouldn't have made anything At this workshop, it is therefore their choice, but they were not allowed to leave in a car that is not safe on the road, and the workshop would try to stop them or call the police. The only thing that is legal is to pay a transport/own on a tow truck or an auto trailer to another workshop, home or scrapyard. If you drive a car in Denmark that you know is not in order or have been in an accident and drive anyway, the police can fine you in dangerous cases Confiscé your car, and by that I mean they take cars and either sell it and the money goes to the state or the car gets scrapped. However, in some countries in Europe, we have given cars that have been confiscated to Ukraine. In many countries in Europe, the state can also confiscate your car if you wild and endanger the lives of others called madness driving, driving with a blood alcohol level over 2.0 allowed is between 0.5-0.8, driving drunk three times in a row if you drive over 200 kmh and if you are caught driving Without a driver's license and insurance the first time it happens, the police will take your license plates. All this has made driving in Denmark and Europe very safe. In 2022, only 154 people were killed in traffic in Denmark with a population of 6.8 million inhabitants, that is one death of 44.156 inhabitants. In the United States, this number is a death of 8,209, so U.S. roads are almost 5.5 times as dangerous as in Denmark, you can do better. Speaking for the whole of Europe is a death of 23,723 so 3 times better in the US and there are 446 million living in Europe.

[@SUPRAMIKE18]

The shop I worked at we weren't allowed to let vehicles leave in an unsafe condition, we had so many customers call the police on us only for the police to side with us after seeing the deathtrap they drove in.

I once tried to help a middle aged woman with car troubles at a gasoline station. She had the hood up so I started checking out all the fluids and her car had no oil on the dip stick so I told her and she said she had just added oil.

[@fernadogonzalez2940]

[@frigginresulrum]

I'm willing to bet that every story ending with "The customer declined repairs and drove away" involved the phrase "I KNOW MY CAR!"

[@UlshaRS]

usually preceding or followed by "You're just trying to rip me off"

[@Khaisz.]

"I know my car" then why are you asking me for help?

[@JesseCase]

Sometimes it's because they physically do not have the money to fix it even though they would like to and unfortunately have no option but to decline repairs and drive away. However, many of them are most definitely just stubborn jackasses and think that they know better than the mechanic, which is very likely how they ended up in the situation they are in to begin with.

[@Hellsong89]

@@carpo719 Yeah doing your self can save thousands, but then again if you dont bother learning what not to do you might end up paying thousands. If you hear noise somewhere, clean the car properly, read the manual, check the fluids and then try again. Then again one must remember average IQ is 100 points... statistically 50% of the world is dumber than that...That is lots and lots of dumb. Also dont dizz the foam! It was the fundamental building block to keep this old mercedes utter rust bucket together in across the country trip in one adventure and crazy owner ever drove it trough 3 countries after that, witch was god damn miracle. I'm rather proud of that jerry rig job. I mean the strut tower was worse than one on the video and couple of the rusted out vehicles seen. All it took was couple nailing plates, pop rivets, urethane foam laminated with news papers and lots of praying was only thing holding that thing together and after that it would have probably floated.

I started to wonder what was up, then I got up to the left rear of the car and saw it. Someone had taken a rubber dildo that was about 10 inches long and tied it to the underneath of the car.

A plumber is hired to unclog a customer's sink. When they arrive, they find 50 individual pipe fittings of all different materials, sizes, and shapes connecting the sink drain to the plumbing. There are three separate paths for water to flow through, one of which leads to a dead end. The faucet is a random copper pipe with the end crimped, and holes drilled through it to let water out. They have welded a wrench to the cold water tap since the original handle broke off. The garbage disposal (the cause of the clog) is actually a blender motor shoved onto the bottom of a metal coffee can with the edges glued to the motor body to prevent leaks, and a pvc pipe drains it to a separate drain. The customer put plastic wrappers down it to get rid of them, thus causing the clog. The plumber refuses to do any repairs and blacklists the customer, and the customer continues using the monster of a sink while calling a different plumber. They go through 4 different plumbers before finally giving up and ripping it all out to install a new sink themselves, but they end up damaging the plumbing in the walls and have to hire someone to replace it, and install another new sink. This is the energy these videos have.

[@JurrevanHerwijnen]

In Germany and pretty much all of Europe that would be a call to local police for a quick visit if someone would want to leave in a clearly unsafe car. Sure there are older cars that can have several issues at once between the mandatory inspections to be able to even drive it on the road.. But those usually end up getting scrapped because they can't afford to fix them.. At least it's nearly impossible to even get remotely this close to the horrifying examples on the channel.

I work as a maintenance mechanic at a factory with machines that several people operate at different stations. It never ceases to amaze me how stupid people can be with machinery. 90% of the calls I go on are because of the people working on the manufacturing line. Some people should only be shelf stockers at the dollar store, because they have zero critical thinking skills. These clips just go to show that we really need to make getting a drivers license alot tougher to keep these block heads off the roads.

[@firetom911]

You are 100% right with the shelf stockers..... 👍

If we improve public transit enough we probably could get away with making the requirements for a license more strict.

[@dave8168]

Had something similar happen to me, but it was a busted rear leaf spring...couldn't even tell it was broken. I put the car up in the air, replaced wheel bearings and seals, and brakes, and was ready to put it back on the ground when I saw the drivers' side part of the axle drop a little. Looked at it and found the main leaf was busted right where it attached to the rear shackle, and it had been that way for a while. Didn't have a replacement so I drove it like that for a week with no issue 'til the new one arrived.

[@Snomks]

Holy f**k!

I have a confession to make. So last summer I crashed my car, it was pretty much just cosmetic damage, but I did have to replace the passenger side door. My driver side window already didn’t work (honestly just too lazy to fix it lol), and when I got the passenger door, the window on that one didn’t work either, so I was stuck with no windows being able to open or close. Drove around all summer baking in the heat. At the end of the summer, I finally realized I had the window lock on. Low and behold, the passenger window works now! I’ve practically rebuilt the whole engine and suspension on this car, I know it inside and out, and this really made me think “holy shit if this isn’t a ‘customer states’” moment lmao. Never felt dumber in my life

In all seriousness. You think thats bad? Three years ago I had parked my truck on a hill, and had my emergency brake on, I'm with my girlfriend, and we go to leave. I'm driving and there's smoke coming out of the back. I park my truck onto the side of the road. Call the fucking FIRE DEPARTMENT for a vehicle on fire, and wait. An hour and a half later, they show up and inspect the car, and realize I had left the parking brake on.. The look of disappointment in their eyes I'll never forget.. Fast forward now, I work at Firestone as a maintainance technician and look for problems like these! 🤣
