Right!

I'm a heavy equipment mechanic and do federal inspections on big trucks. That garbage truck with cracked brake shoes and loose tag axle was very mild. I see them come in all the time with the truck basically falling apart and on fire and the owners just expect me to slap a sticker on it so he can drive away. You would not believe the lack of maintenance on big trucks. I've seen them in such a state of disrepair it took me over an hour to write down everything I found. Its like they think they can drive over incredibly rough roads while hauling tens of thousands of pounds 12 hours a day 7 days a week for years and nothing will need work.

I agree, we own 3 trucks and regardless of cost, if it's broke, it gets fixed, on the road or in our shop. Very few repairs "can wait until you get back to the shop". If the driver has a major issue like trans or engine, we've gone out to the truck and towed it back on a 5th wheel boom, big repairs are definitely cheaper in our shop but trucking ain't cheap neither way.

Some people do not have a clue about anything. let alone a vehicle. And they are out driving around. Scary.

We've seen spray foam used in past videos for different reasons but what we saw at 2:46 is the granddaddy of all those reasons.

It's always nice to see the great customer vehicles lovingly maintained at the end of each video. They make a startling contrast with the wreckage in the rest of the video.

I've got a dumb mechanical story. One time I took my skid-steer into service because the hydraulics wouldn't stay up. When I went to pick it up they showed me that the hydraulic pressure release was pulled and stuck in the up position, all they had to do was push the button back down.

I believe the study or poll also revealed like 60% of those same people had no idea how to switch from high to low beam.

There should be state law that says any vehicle that is not safe to drive should be reported until the proper repairs are completed. This is insanity that these kind of vehicles are on the road. If a vehicle must be towed away from a shop because it’s unsafe to drive then the police must be notified that the vehicle cannot be driven until the vehicle is properly fixed.

@j_taylor

Ай бұрын

I agree the situation is nuts, but many US states don't even require safety inspections to keep a vehicle on the road. In other words, the customer could legally continue to drive it in that condition as long as it's not reported. So you'd have customers mad as hell at the mechanic for stopping them, and police who might have higher priorities. Put another way, in some of those low-regulation states, it's easier and possibly cheaper to buy a gun to settle a dispute than it is to get your vehicle repaired.

Ай бұрын

The problem you could run into with that is a less-than-honest mechanic saying you need an expensive repair that you don't, then threatening to report your vehicle as unsafe unless you pay him his extortion money. That's why even if a vehicle fails a state inspection it isn't seized/impounded/etc. They just slap a "rejected" sticker on the windshield and send you on your way and if a cop catches you driving it after that then you're in trouble and it could be impounded. But the power to do that does not, and should not, lie with the mechanic as there's too much potential for abuse.

A friend of mine bought a car from a family friend and it was running fine, but he kept having an issue where it would stall out randomly when sitting (one time in a drive-thru). I told him his description sounded like the alternator and when I did a test, it did seem that way... until I looked closer at the wiring. What tipped me off that something was wrong was the splatters of solder around the battery tray. The previous owner had removed the negative battery wire and had attached about four other ground wires. None of them were grounded to metal, just paint, some were loose and two of them had those copper crimp lugs on the ends with solder on them, but they weren't making a good connection. I (almost) ripped out all the wires, reattached the negative battery cable to (the proper) ground, kept all the 4ga wires and copper lugs, and his car ran perfectly fine. Alternator was putting out 13-14+ volts even when sitting at idle. Then his AC compressor caused a belt issue, but that's a whole other story...

whenever someone declines repairs and tries to drive away in an unsafe vehicle, they should call the cops and said person ticketed for driving with defective/unsafe equipment

2:02 Friend of mine owns a large Used Car Lot. He bought a Caravan at auction years ago for a very low price. Said it wouldn't idle but ran great on the Interstate back to the lot. Wasn't really worth his mechanic working on instead of higher profit vehicles so I bought it very cheaply. Stopped for gas and it was gasping and struggling to idle. Figured pull the air cleaner and get a new one at the parts house. Somebody had washed the dirtiest paper filter on Earth and created a brick. Pulled it out and the engine sobbed with relief and ran like a new one. It thanked me with several years of trouble free driving.
