  • So let me explain... the Tazer from ZAUTOMOTIVE bricked my Durango, but it was for a good reason. Watch the whole video to find out what happened and why it bricked my Durango. Also you will find out how it was fixed and why you don't want to have to pay the bill for this fix. As a result of this issue, the Tazer now has new upgraded firmware to prevent this from happening ever again and also allowed for some other bug fixes as well. Upgrade to version 2.5.8 now!! Joe from ZAutomotive is a prime example of how companies should treat their customers with service and solutions. It's not about the actual problem but what the person and/or company does to resolve the issue. Buy a Tazer today and tell them MattySRT sent you!

      yes for sure. At first I was like ohh they are paying for it cuz I was sooo mad. As things cooled down and I talked to Joe though that thought went away and then hes the one the offered to pay for it instead of me demanding it. That makes it such a standup move cuz Im sure if I demanded it he would have done it, however cuz hes the one that offered it that means he was thinking about his service and response to the issue. That makes it much better.

    How's the car been and the reliability with the tune any issues? Mechanically

    • @MattySRT
      @MattySRT  ปีที่แล้ว

      Its been terrific. No issues other than my transmission shifts are a little rougher when cold but not much at all. If I do full pulls from a dead stop I need to have the trans in track mode. If Im in sport mode the trans seems to not shift as quickly as it should and its hard for a tuner to tune for sport mode and track mode. Its not like its a set setting you can manipulate. I figured if im going to do a full launch Ill be in track mode anyways.

    I had the tazer for a month. Just the other day I used the pin code for the first time. Next thing I know the entire thing goes crazy all the lights are flashing in the cluster. The car then stopped cranking. Next thing I know Im bringing out mechanics and replacing the pcm, rf hub, throttle body, gutted all of the interior looking for broken wires. I will never use this again. Im still trying to fix it.

    Yep, remote start is sudden death. I think Zauto should, at least, program in a "remote disable" when marrying. Zauto reimbursed me for my expenses too. Pretty leary about installing the Tazer again though.

    I just recently bought a tazer and i had put the code on there but everytime i turn on my car and put in the code it turns off the car but afterwards i will be able to turn it back on…. I kinda got scared so i cleared the pin because i dont want it to be bricked

    • @MattySRT
      @MattySRT  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      In all honestly, the PIN feature is terrific but not needed for all people. I myself work at night and stay in a garage during the day so my vehicle rarely is parked in public. I dont need the PIN myself but for right now I feel theres other better features on the tazer for theft prevention than the PIN feature. I like the kill by FOB feature myself and feel that is a better fit for me. Still waiting for that Ejecto seato feature coming any day now....

      Yes... Joe from Z Auto here. We had about 20 cars have this problem, and I paid to get every one of them fixed and reimbursed. An expensive consequence of an oversight on my part (I didn't think of all these things happening at the same time!) but I don't want to leave anyone with a bad taste because they had to eat a $1000 repair.
