Nissan Altima: The official car of the bank wouldn't finance a Charger.

If it was an Asian girl would it be Ron Hole?

Rather than making a video complaining you can flip it and show all the work you've put into and it's now for sale to the first buyer. It's all about how you market yourself.

Well you can still make it with 200,000 mi 50000 with a new cars if you know how to take care of them will you have some cars do come very defective from factory but still if you take care of yourself it's going to last a long time

They're letting too many deadbeats get car loans with little to no repercussions for defaulting on them. That repair he described cost thousands, probably nearly more than the car was worth.

What will y’all quote me for a transmission rebuild on a 1999 Nissan Sentra 2 liter engine? Or how much for a replacement? Which one will you think is the better option. Just put so much money into this car I don’t want to get rid of it😢

Dealership mechanics don't know crap

Respect to you mechanics. Computerized components of cars make repairs SO MUCH more EXPENSIVE!

That's why on larger jobs you require at least 50% down or cost of parts,whichever is greater.. My state for a garage to claim a vehicle as abandoned or lean on it costs more than most are worth. By the time you get through lawyers, ads in papers etc you've not only lost parts and labor but legal fees and other B.S.. Why we used to have a sign and printed on estimates and bills ,you have x amount of days to pick up your vehicle. otherwise it will be considered abandoned and get towed. Then you can pay storage fees to tow company.

Who replaces a transmission? Of course she left the car there. You just buy another car for the cost of the repair.

This happened to my budddy, he would try to help out people and they would screw him. Anything above like 1000 should be half or something up front

Had to be a Nissan

So the transmission cost the same as buying another one😮

As a retired irish mechanic. Try a Fiat 124. 🇮🇪🇪🇺

I see a huge market for fully restored older cars like 90’s 2000’s. Why would I buy a new Camry for 40k when I can get a new old one for 20k which will be endlessly cheaper, over the much longer life span that it will offer over the new one. It’s just better in every single way. Also let it be known - Toyota hasn’t made any impressive bullet proof ultra reliable engines since the 90’s. Neither has any other company.

So big auto is forcing independents out? I'll have to go to Nissan then

So it’s a thing nowadays for people to whine about the difficult parts of their jobs?

CVT is trash. manual trannies are significantly more reliable and there's no chance of a blown fuse incapacitating your car.

You folks charging too much maybe

Forgot the fact most places scam you and add on extra costs for nothings

First, he didn't drain the oil. He drained the tranny instead. So the motor has 10 to 12 quarts of oil and the tranny is empty. The MM must be Jiffy Lube trained 😢😅😊😂

How much for the white Nissan?

Well another reason when people put there cars in the shop they keep it in there for longer than it needs just to over charge

Stop crying

My mechanic wants cost of parts upfront for anything over 300 dollars.

Typical Nissan Altima people

Probably wanted you to pay it out of pocket just to have his buddy come and buy it from you the car.

lol ya that’s exactly why…. Bs Maybe if 70% of mechanics didn’t try to rip their customers off people would come pick up their cars. Or maybe more people would become mechanics if they didn’t feel they had to rip people off

Why would you put a brand new oem transmission in an almost 12 year old car? 5 years old or less i can understand but not on something that old. I would be looking for a used one with low mileage or a remanufactured one, that wouldve been alot cheaper and in this case you wouldnt be out so much money.

Just start renting them out

Got to do what you got to do I worked on vehicles for people on the side of dealt with similar situations if it's not all that much money I work with them let them pay me payments or sometimes just give them the vehicle and keep a set of keys go take the motherfuker back if they don't pay me I don't like folding Vehicles like that I've had it done to me over not very much money and the shop did a bunch of authorized work and butchered up my exhaust and I told them not to f*** with any of that I took my car back when they were closed

Neeeeesan

I can’t believe people just abandon their cars.

Next time ask for a deposit or their credit card info.

Shit might just have to go shopping at mechanics lots 😂 shits fixed

Where did it go???

Get paid up front

Take a deposit of at least 25% of the quote before you start work. Basic business rules buddy 🤔

Same with the towing business.

Oh geez, a “lady” came here with an Altima, approved the work on her car and hasn’t paid? Why am I not surprised?

So where do I pic up one of those cars?

Yeah let's forget that part where some people just can't pay for their car. If they can't you will keep it, right ? Ultimately, using those same spots you are upset about. At the end of the day, that transmission will run you what ? 2500 to 3000 for a car worth anywhere between $5000-10000. We all know if that customer would have returned, they would've paid for the a)transmission b)the work. You literally lose nothing by fixing a car you got for free.

Fix it yourself, had a front right collision on a 7th gen Nissan Sentra. Busted radiator and my lower tie bar had been pushed into the frame. Never had worked on a car before this oil change or anything, and after a weekend on RU-vid I did a 2600$ repair in 1 day with 300$

Damn, I didn't know Casey Affleck was a mechanic!

Maybe be smart and ask for deposit on parts so you only loose the labor and still can profit when you lien and sell it.

I have 2009 rav4 sport front wheel drive with p0741 code it was driving perfectly fine just before code came on randomly. Any advice?

That is so not worth doing for an Altima

I hope this tanks their credit score

I couldnt imagine getting into that trade in 2024. I did this in 2005 and got out because its just not a good trade tbh worked for cadillac & gmc

so imagine that in many countries you cannot get rid of a car after you fix it because you don't own it
