More I'd go "Yeah... time to call the cops and have these people arrested for driving a dangerous vehicle!" Which stuff like this, driving a vehicle like this IS a crime in many states.
And I really can't understand why, as you can get very cheap aftermarket brake pads and rotors for pretty much any kind of car these days, they don't last as long as OEM parts but it's not a huge difference unless you're driving some powerful sports car or heavy duty truck.
@@Dr_V I know, I just bought ceramic pads and drilled and slotted rotors for my car. Paid less that 250 for all 4 tires. It's not hard they are just lazy and cheap.
I don't know if the fact that they either did not hear or feel them grinding for a month or that they ignored it and kept driving like that is more scary. We need to bring back annual vehicle brake and suspension safety inspections, at bare minimum.
Having a course on car maintenance should be part of the school curriculum. Even a one-time, 2-hour class could cover the basics of auto maintenance. Everyone would win, car owners, garage mechanics, and the parts industry.
It used to be part of the "being Dad" curriculum. Me an my wife (her dad taught her) have many enjoyable dad memories about our respective fathers' teaching us knee-high critters the car stuff.
@@bor3549 If the parents are academics or non mechanical , nothing to pass on ! Young men today don't work on cars like in the 1960s or 70s, they are glued to their tablets !
This is my favorite place to go to get a laugh. I'm a retired mechanic I worked 52 years of it and it never ceases to amaze me when it comes to dumb people that drive. Thank you for your time
I've done my own mechanical work myself for almost 60 years, but I surrounded myself with extremely competent mechanics. This video is like watching a horror movie 😂
I had a customer that went to a NASCAR race and after getting home couldn't fill his fuel tank, after extensive diagnosis on the fuel venting system we ended up determining that there was a blockage in the fuel filler neck which turned out to be a hot dog that was not fit for dinner.
3:57 Vintage Citroen are infamous for the rubber part in this place. When it fails, the suspension strut shoots through the hood, vintage cars like the XM or Xantia get totaled.
The problem with the Prius is the headgasket, i work at a Toyota dealership and we had quite a few come in with this problem. Once it has around 250k kilometers the headgasket goes out. We have cars here that we have done the headgasket twice already, around the 250k mark and then it lasted till 540k kilometers, customer still loves the car he said
@@jordananderson8299 Whilst he doesn't fix them, if your interested in seeing detailed teardowns of engines with issues that where run till they where junk check out the channel I Do Cars Some fo them are real doozies, even had a couple of smashed wristpins, which is pretty hard to do.
@@darthkarl99 cant go wrong with some malice in the combustion palace. 'oh yes the wrist pin, ready to go in another motor' and the water pump skits are actually great
@@bradhaines3142 Don't forget engine gravel, engine saue, and piston mcnuggets. Also rodney the connecting rod, and his friend, notrodney the disconnecting rod.
3:22 this is part of an ongoing issue where companies are just shipping w/e comes out of the factories regardless of whether it has been through any quality checks... it is easier for them to apologize and send another than spend the time to make sure its good in the first place.
I made at least 4 different safety violation reports, for the same issue on different busses, before I submitted this clip 💀. No one seems to care. If anyone finds themselves in Tempe AZ using public transportation, watch out.
In my case, the reason it takes so long to take my car in to get repaired is money. The last time I drove my car, it did not leak anything when I left but when I got home, I can see a trail of transmission fluid. I do not want to ruin my transmission by driving it anymore but can't afford to take it in for repair either.
@@marymulrooney1334 look into doing it yourself. a lot of small things on some models are totally doable in a parking lot, and you could save enough money to buy every tool you need brand new and GOOD parts (dont go cheap, always bites you later) and still be ahead of what any shop will charge
There’s no way I’d ever get on one of those charter buses there’s to many of those companies that do whatever they can to save a dime on maintenance 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼
What you want the full 10 min video of them filling the tank?? It’s one of the few weird one off issues so it’s what’s going to get the most clicks. Or would you like him to title the video “customer states I hear a knocking noise”?
My ‘06 Mustang takes a while to fill. Something about the design and vent tube. Basically, the tank will half fill then click off. You gotta hold the hose 90-180 degrees and then continue to fill the remaining 7-8 gallons. I could get it fixed, or just deal with it… it’s been like that for 5 years. 😅
2:20 "The only thing I don't get is how it took them so long to bring it in." Don't complain about that sort of thing if you're not volunteering to pay for it.
The USA clearly does not have a system of an obligatory annual checkup, have you? Here in Europe (communism, mind!) it is required to have your car checked according to prescription. Apart from engine and dashboard issues, the majority of the issues shown are eyepoppin' to a European.
In the U.S., each individual state sets its own laws and rules when it comes to driving and operating a vehicle. Some states do require inspections, some require smog checks, some require nothing.
0:41 This is a gmc gmt800 2500 or 3500. Happened to me, these truck won`t sound or feel any different with all the pads gone and eating the rotors in the rear
@@brandonroeder2461 , no, camshaft ramps are worn and rocker arms or hydro lifters which are direct sliding on ramps, can not follow deformed worn ramps on higher engine revolution, so rocker arms or hydro lifters disengage and engage the ramp surface again and when engages the ramp surface again, it causes this knocking noise on higher engine revolution.
Wait till you get a Toyota that pulled the head bolt threads for no reason and is now pissing coolant???fyi never use heli coils. They make a thread cert setup for them.
I have never required to check the air conditioning drain plug but I heard a bit of sloshing so got underneath and had a nice aircon water shower the other day 😂😂
Do the Americans not have to have their cars checked every year for compliance with the law and motor vehicle safety standards here in the UK? Every car over three year old has to be checked every year and if it fails it is not allowed to be driven on the road and it is made compliance with the law again. I just get the impression from these videos from the good old USA that there is either very poor standards no standards at all or some states/parts of the country. No reason or need to take safety test on your vehicle every year.
@@KM-os4be You'd rather risk some fool destroy your family in an "accident" because he let his brake disks completely wear away so he could save a few bucks. You live in a country full of geniuses
We got rid of the annual state inspection in Texas recently. So you can basically drive around with a pickup truck with bald tires and plow into a family of four any day of the week if you feel like it.
The title "Customer States It Takes 10 Minutes To Fill The Fuel Tank" is the dumbest title for this video. There was only about 2 to 3 seconds of the title name and the rest was about all kinds of problems with cars. So why the "Customer States It Takes 10 Minutes To Fill The Fuel Tank" when it had nothing to do with the body of the video. A quick blurb of something for a 4min19sec of a dumb video. Not worth watching at all ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
as far as slow fill gas tanks, I have found people overfilling gas tanks and getting raw fuel in the vent assembly cause the vent to stick closed to be the cause.
