It seems that (not just the auto industry) that once a company has your money warranties are next to worthless. I've had similar issues with 'home owners' warranties. Insurance agencies play a similar game where once you have your premium they will cut any corners they can to avoid paying out claims. Certain types of insurance is unavoidable to have to purchase but in general if you can avoid it on products known to depreciate you'll be better off.

just means the FACTORY warrantiy is validated IMO purely from a buying standpoint. You the would be 5/7 year etc + miles on powertrain reattained via any manufacturer/certified p/o vehicles. OFC still locked to manufactured/year opposed to date of purchase for any perspective buyer. IMO when its the difference of a coupe thouseand...its largely worth it to anyone buying/interested in buying a "luxury" car brand...bc the warranty/maintenence is already costly and ANY issue within a small window of ownership post/assembly LINE IMO should definitely be rectified by manufacturer. Sure its already pretty dumb to run a factory turbo/luxury car bc of future oil/gasket issues as many display. But imagine getting a non pre-ownedcertified bmw/audi/vw and it craps out within 5 years of coming off the line....and the second owner is now UBER screwed vs buying a potentially 2-3000$ more expensive "certified" option that they can now leverage the dealership over via manufacturer warranty....to anyone else..esp when buying a PROVEN platform...certified is pretty much a waste of $$$ unless the owner isnt maintenence inclined potentially a woman with all respect to that regard...or say your daughter thats a student out of state etc that needs to work/have a car. If pppl think certfied means "new" thats a mental error of semantics at that point and even worse if the delearship is taking advantage of someones dimwitted outlook of SURELY everything i spend my money on is good for ME if it sounds like it XD. STILL given the CVT cycle/market id consider a CPO honda etc brand even just bc some CVT crap out pretty early into lifetime as well....as turbo leaks/gasket/oil issues even with their line of 1.5-2.0turbos.

A spot weld is easy to see if it fails or is missing but a running weld could be behind an integral part of the chassis .

Scotty need to correct you on the train power system, a train today is diesel/electric. There is a large diesel motor which powers a huge generator and the train also has 2 battery banks. When one battery draws down to a certain capacity, the second battery bank kicks in and the diesel generator charges the 1st battery bank. This continues back and forth, that is why when people see diesel exhaust they assume it is a diesel powered train, it is not. They Edison semi built by a Canadian logger runs on the diesel/electric train system.

Nissan used to built decent cars and trucks. It all started going downhill around 2012 or later. Now, they are good for maybe 100,000km before major repairs are required. Mazda is a good buy these days. Kia and Hyundai have gone to the dogs and all the "prestige" cars fall apart after 50-70km. Y neighbour's used Porsche Macan (2021) is in the garage again for a brake job. It's 400+ for an oil change how much is the brake job?

[@EmeraldHill-vo1cs]

300 kilos is approx 300 litres ,which is just over 72 gallons--not much in a day!

[@Philip-hv2kc]

300 kilograms of hydrogen per day is quite alotta hydrogen . . Say it was in liquid form , then one litre of it would be 8.5% the mass of one litre of water and likely 10% the mass of a litre of petrol . So then 12 kilograms of hydrogen would be the same volume as a 120 kilograms of petrol . It's energy content would also be greater . But you can't have liquid hydrogen if you're going to be practical. Of course it follows that 300 kilos of hydrogen is same volume as 3000 kilos of petrol and 3000 kilos of petrol is say around 3400 to 3600 litres ,, gotta check on actual density,, . . It's liquid hydrogen though at cryogenic temperatures, so it won't be a thing except for rocket launches. Maybe as a hydride such as graphitic nitride hydride at manageable pressure the hydrogen can be stored at 10% effective volume in a tank with ¼ inch thick walls. Conversion efficiency to electricity via fuel cell is better than 90% and the electric motors are also around 90% efficient . I'm liking those figures.

Pre-owned inspection means nothing unless they hand you "Thier" pre-owned certificated Guarantee that specifies the inspection points and that they will cover them against failure.

[@David-d4k9k]

It’s hard to believe people are still actually buying Nissans. I guess they’re only for drivers who don’t research before purchase.

[@AndrewFaust-x1e]

Ford needs to do something...fast. Fix their quality, and stop putting all this ridiculous unnecessary technology that hardly anyones uses and knows how to operate and go back to the basics.

[@komradkolonel]

I remember when Nissans were really good. They were about as good as a Toyota or Honda and you could usually get them for a little less money. Nissan didn't upgrade Renault, Renault brought Nissan down to their level.

[@necroslair]

Hydrogen powered semis? The Hindenburg has entered the chat…

[@christopherschleeper7186]

Certified does mean to get an extended warranty. So, its not totally worthless. 7/100k on my used Titan.

[@stevefussell8766]

I love scottie videos man !! So much better than anything on Netflix or whatever!

[@David-d4k9k]

Certified pre-owned vehicle legally means it was pre-owned.

[@Nevermindyou7]

Everyone knows better than the mechanic :) i love these vids and comments. Sooooooooooo,i still know as much as i did before i watched the video. But now i just have less time and fewer braincells:(

[@tomjoseph1444]

Gee, just a few videos ago, you were slamming Hydrogen. I corrected you then and suggested you actually educate yourself. It is not that big of a deal to run sea water through a de-sal plant.

[@GdaySport]

Nissan went down hill when they went into business with Renault!

[@ryanbrandt5404]

To be semi fair to those mechanics who certify pre-owned cars. Who looks to see if the manufacturer made the welds correct? When you check cars out to see if it's OK to buy. Do you look at welds scotty?

[@willwhite7845]

Certified pre owned? Just stop using all these cute little names. It's freakin used!

[@renkhachatoorian302]

The only thing that will never fall apart, is manual transmission. It will last forever.

[@bettersteps]

Nissan really has gone downhill. At one point they were closing in on Toyota and Honda. Now, they're on the same level as Dodge. I hope Stellantis doesn't do the same to Jeep.

[@chrisduhaime5689]

There's lot of underwater veicals out there somebody is getting stuck with them

[@peterpanini96]

We got nissan suv with tenesis driving license car plate with crapy car. 😂 it's doing fine full gasoline deposit 2 weeks later runing on reserve . 😂

[@mick2383]

Also Scotty, your videos and information is awesome .. I never miss one.

[@genericdude6551]

I wouldn't use it to parallel park. I avoid parallel parking anyway.

[@1970chevy]

God damn. How many times can you repeat that ford said they didn't use it much.

[@jonathantheyorkie]

Honestly why do so many people buy cars that fall apart and spend more time in the shop than on the road?

[@davidpipes5451]

You hear that phrase all the time certified pre owned , never trust any car lot used or new Chinese economy is in the Dump right now most car company warranties are worthless to start with it's like pulling nails out of concrete to get any car company service center to honor warranties .

[@jabberyt]

Ab-zurd. 😮😊

[@thegoat3109]

How much should a decent mechanic charge for checking out a car?

[@emmanuelfernandez1238]

You’re the same guy that said Nissan trucks aren’t bad

[@SavingPvtBryan32]

I already knew it was nissan before i even clicked lmao.

[@hamishlovesit4731]

[@paul-v7m]

[@timwhite8878]

Nissan they have problems.

[@oscarlontoc8284]

I hope you are ok after storm Helene

[@CT37BN]

For sure China can't build a properly good reliable normally aspirated engine as the Japanese, so they went the battery route, but it seems they don't do long term tests for parts especially the underbody like chassis, suspension parts. Saw some videos they use low grade metals on some of these vehicles.

[@lloydfairweather6070]

It was built on a Friday

[@ff11dream]

[@GoldRaven-oe4by]

Europe is making cars for china. Mexico is making cars for america. What is happening?

Tommy Boy: Here's how I see it. A guy puts a guarantee on the box 'cause he wants you to feel all warm and toasty inside. Because they know all they sold ya was a guaranteed piece of sh*t.
