Every time i watch one of these videos it scares the hell out of me knowing these are the people we share the road with.

[@Ruben-Mazereeuw]

Exactly thats the most dangerous "part" of them al😅

[@DonutVIP]

I usually drive at least 3 car behind to see anything weird on the car, if you follow a truck that needs alignment, you would know, those are the most scariest car to see driving the road

[@AnytimeHaynes]

I share your concern. It's unsettling to see such behavior from fellow drivers on the road. Stay cautious and promote road safety.

[@jeffreylord8172]

Never ceases to amaze me , how people disregard safety and their cars condition

[@JH24820]

Do they wash their ass?

[@Keepmywifesnameoutyafucknmouth]

Shut up

[@LEOhopeful]

It's because NOBODY IS TAUGHT ANYTHING ABOUT CARS "Obviously it's fine, it's still moving" I've said for years that there should be a MANDATORY basic auto care class in school You don't have to know how to change the oil, but you DO have to know WHY it's important to change the oil!!

[@GetTheFO]

Like the other guy said, it’s a lack of knowledge or forethought. Yeah, I know common sense dictates… but as we all know sense isn’t very common anymore.

[@LEOhopeful]

@@GetTheFO the simple question for an automotive idiot is "did it do that/make that sound, when you bought it?" If not, something is wrong I know a 50+ y/o woman that has 260k on her 2010 Sienna, owned since new. She just had a tire, with a separated belt, replaced today, because "it felt funny yesterday" PAY ATTENTION PEOPLE!!

[@joefratianni8693]

I can't wait for the day when the engineers come up with the coolant/oil mix that works for both systems. Imagine the money saved on repairs!

[@eefneleman9564]

It's a conspiracy.

[@Boodieman72]

I think those have been around for a while. They used to call them air cooled.

[@michaelbenoit248]

In a way it already exists… air cooling instead of using water. In an air cooled unit since the air isn’t displacing as much heat as water cooling can those systems are more of an oil cooled system. Some smaller 25hp engines have an oil cooler in the oil system.

[@skylined5534]

​@@michaelbenoit248 Try lubricating the internals with fresh air 😂

[@zackwarner9452]

Sadly water an oil never mix

[@ColtonRMagby]

"Customer states 'I hit some road debris.'" That windshield and metal piece make me wonder how they got there at all.

[@Freezinggreece2]

[@ColtonRMagby]

@@Freezinggreece2 That, or they're better at driving than my left foot.

[@Funky666]

I bet the customer's car was towed, and the shackle from the car in front of them gave up.

[@michaelmccord6448]

I would love to see these cars and trucks have a MOT test in the UK.

[@johnm725]

That's not freedom. That's why we drove you lot out.

[@CommodoreFloopjack78]

Pretty darn sure the rust is the only thing holding some of these rat traps together.

[@gridlore]

I had a 1973 Datsun miniwagon that I followed the Grateful Dead in. I swear, at the end, it was the Deadhead stickers holding the thing together.

[@siouex]

Defective brakes and rotten chassis always gets me chills

[@PseudoSpaceMarine]

Sometimes I wonder if people are really that ignorant about their car’s safety or if they really are aware but like to drive it that way for the thrills.

[@claytoncoolidge992]

The Briggs and Stratton engine happens when someone adds something like rislone stop smoke to the oil thinking that they are going to help reduce oil burning and add the whole bottle. It happens fast too had a "buddy" sabotage my lawnmower that way took 2 uses of the mower and it started to make Alot of noise and I decided to drain the oil to see if it had metal in it .. took 29 gallons of diesel gas mixture and 3 weeks to get it flushed out of the engine it ran ok but burned Alot of oil afterwards though

[@GetTheFO]

I bet it did lol. Diesel probably broke up all the residual stuff helping with the oil pressure, I had the same thing happen with an older cord I bought to fix up. Used diesel to break up all the crap in the oil pan, found quite a number of leaks around the seal following that.

[@alexperson4503]

"Rockabye baby in the engine bay"😂😂

[@jeffmech1]

For us non-mechanics it would be great if you would give a bit more of an explanation as to what is happening. Some are obvious, but some we have no clue. I know you are the central point for people sending them in, but come on!! Help out the uninformed. Thanks!

[@johnrobinson5217]

Needed a good laugh this morning. Thanks guys😂😂😂

[@MICHAEL-ys3pu]

I asked a mate that has been in the car repair business for 35 years if he has ever seen any thing like what is shown in these videos, he said no and doesn’t know what people do to there cars in America.

[@eefneleman9564]

[@CGT80]

Seem people aren't smart enough to figure out that human eyes are side side by side and work best with a horizontal image. They must watch on a phone in portrait orientation. I hate vertical video, even on my phone.

[@rodleypumpkins4174]

10:30 I had a gm dealer do that to me too. Except my front tire did come off and I was going 50. In a big duramax truck too. The other rim had lug nuts just laying in the cap that cover the lug holes they didn’t tighten any of the front lugs.

[@Freezinggreece2]

Ahhhh you don't need wheels to drive, clearly! 😅 glad you're safe, was probably terrifying when it happened

[@rodleypumpkins4174]

@@Freezinggreece2 lol it was pretty scary but smoother then I would have thought. My truck basicallly used my rotor as a wheel and I “rolled “ to a stop in the ditch. Steering wheel kind of went nuts. I was thankful no one was coming the other direction my tire came off driver side went flying passed me across the road and ended up like 500 yards into this field. If it hit a car oh man lol 35” tire with 20” rims.

The difference is, in 1976, you might have turned to your buddy beside you and said, "Hey, check this out" and gone about your day. In 2023, your buddy beside you has become 476K people and counting. As someone who's just learning, I like watching these because I feel like I'm benefiting from other people's experience. But I totally understand why someone with more experience might not be so impressed 😂

[@bidwell13]

12:30 I had a tire place do that to my 73 Chevy and I had to call a tow truck to help change my flat and he had to call a second truck that had a more powerful tool to help.

[@michaelvarble4392]

Do you remember the mechanical fuel pumps on the older cars that ran off the cam. When it would go bad it filled the crankcase with gasoline sometimes destroyng the bearings but it was redesigned so when the diaphragm broke it leaked to the outside by a small hole not inside.

The lug nuts broke off the car was old. and recently this week the enegine rod shot through the engine of it so now we're looking for a new car for her. it was a Jeep Grand cherokee from 1999.

[@kingazam1113]

question to mechanics and car owners here, how ofte nshould you send your car for full inspection? once a year, once in 2 years? kindly asking, i don't own a car yet and saving for one

[@VirginiaBronson]

Depends on what state you're in. For example, I'm in TX, and an inspection is legally required every year. Other states don't require inspections at all.

[@100GTAGUY]

Depends on your local regulations, but you should refer to your owners and or service manual and follow their recommendations for inspection and service intervals. Imo it doesn't hurt to have it inspected during each oil change just to see how things are holding up with a simple visual inspection. Preventative maintenance and periodic inspections are cheaper than repairing a catastrophic failures. The more regularly its inspected the more likely it is to spot and fix a problem. At a minimum as an owner you should check your fluid levels and tire pressure every two weeks to a month, or whenever you top off the fuel as most manuals will state.
