Bought a used 2019 Cadillac cts. 3.6 Liter v6 engine with an 8 speed automatic transmission. The car drove perfectly during the test drive and the day following the paper work. Suddenly the car started to have terrible shudder while driving and felt like transmission slip/cylinder miss fire. I took it to a shop and had the transmission flushed and that definitely fixed the issue. In some cases the saying “If it’s not broken then don’t fix it.” applies, but in my situation the transmission flushed saved my driving experience. Going on 2 and a half years now.

I used to own a 2018 Jeep SRT, and unfortunately, it turned out to be a disappointment. The AWD system failed after just 60,000 miles, despite the fact that I never even took it to the track. On top of that, the water pump also broke down. The interior quality was equally subpar-the dashboard cracked around 40,000 miles due to heat exposure, and the carbon fiber trims started warping and bending, also from the heat. Overall, the build quality left much to be desired.

How does Tesla sell so many, when all the other companies can't sell them?

[@cw88shade]

19% profit margin compared to negative one. Tradtional auto dosent want to sell EV's but they have no choice than to try.

[@mr.foxwiz1653]

The charging network is the best

[@CoLLectiNgCAtS-q2q]

Never interested in electric vehicle. Tesla is the worst looking of the EV's. We laughed when they came out and still laughing. Ugly is ugly. 😂😂😂

[@deepstatecia]

calm down. not healthy for old people to be too excited

[@motersickel]

Well the older Jeeps are good the ones that had the inline 6 cylinder or even the ones with the 3.8 V6 which was a push rod engine, those are pretty good. But that 3.6 VVT engine is absolute garbage.

[@jeffwolf8018]

I think in the 90s Jeeps used to have Toyota transmissions too😮 I believe the 4.0 l in line 6

[@bluessrv1]

Can't agree with you more! Just sold my 2012 Wrangler Sport. Owned it for 8 months (bought from major dealership) and from the first 2 weeks of ownership nothing but wrenching on the thing. And it was ALL stock, no mods. Wanted to love it but even the Jeep forum members know you better keep a tool box in your Jeep. Total garbage, those 3.6L"s.

My cars cat is attached to the downpipe. They can get under my car all they want. They wont get anything. Theyd have to get into the engine bay.

[@SA4Life324]

I think 🤔 I know what AUDI stands for.... Always Under Dysfunctional Issues

[@komradkolonel]

There's not a single EV out there that appeals to me at all.

[@sucha603boy]

I agree with the trans flush danger if the vehicle has high mileage. I had this issue when I flushed one of my high mileage cars, less than 500 miles after the trans broke. Just filter changes and top offs for this guy now.

[@motherslove686]

Dear scotty, did you hear news about nissan and honda going to merge? I hope it is not going to make honda a less reliable brand!

[@1BlubeTube]

The 70s cars are the best

[@JohnTaylor-bd1uy]

I'd argue 90s.

[@GH-oi2jf]

US brands were junk in the 1970s.

[@1BlubeTube]

@@JohnTaylor-bd1uy 1987 to 1994 to be exact, Asian and American. Even Chrysler was good, thanks to Cummins and Mitsubishi. But not as good as the 70s. Points, carburetor and a catalytic converter is all you need.

[@mikesmyth4829]

We had a 1988 Jeep Cherokee. It was a money pit. They're money pits in 1988 and they're still money pits. Ours was an AMC-built SUV. It doesn't matter who owns Jeep. They're always money pits.

[@motersickel]

Yeah they're worth more than 20 bucks the one off of a Prius probably will still bring $300 that's what I used to do back in 2020 to 2023 I'm an auto dealer I would buy junk cars that's not going back on the road ever actually I would take them and crush them at the recycling yard and sell the converters to the local converter guy made a lot of money doing that at the time some of those Prius converters could bring up to 1800

[@EvzenKovar-i5p]

As the Prius Gens progressed, did the converters get more and more valuable? Or were there differences within generation years also?

[@Gordon-j4w]

sure

[@johnknott6539]

Of course it is illegal to resell used catalytic converters

[@frankiepowell9940]

I like Scotty. But, he's wrong about Tesla. Teslas are pretty good. At least as reliable as most other brands.

[@tbone9405]

Poor Scotty, just bash electric only, they are shutting down gas car plants also, no cars are selling like they use to, all vehicles have gotten too bloated with all the government required things and all those bells and whistles that a lot of people don’t want!

[@paulkelly2085]

Wife and I saw a Tesla Truck going eastbound on Highway 11 (Trans Canada Highway) between Cochrane and Smooth Rock Falls on Thursday December 19, 2024, late afternoon. Wonder how far it could go today when temps were at a high of neg 26 F.. Take our 2010 Dodge Grand Caravan with over 326,874km any day.

[@bentullett6068]

Saw my first ever Cyber truck. It looks crap.

[@b21raider27]

40 out 45 fatalities Tesla. Just wow! FSD, indeed!

[@SigFigNewton]

What 45 fatalities? Thousands die in cars all the time

[@GH-oi2jf]

@@SigFigNewton- I think they mean among electric cars, or self-driving cars.

[@Fraxorus]

Tesla sucks

[@FredPhillippe]

Government needs to stay out of auto industry. Let the public decide what they want to buy. Poor people need cars and the price of all cars have went impart to pay for the development of EV. So EV has screwed up everything. For everybody. Stop wasting tax payers money on rebates tax breaks with poor tax payers money . EV has to stand on its own , no money for EV . And tax the heavy EV for using the roads . Give EV owners a tax on their mileage .

[@ToyotaPete]

To all you EV fan people 🤣🤣🤣🤣
