Chiming in on the lack of oil changes. My mother has some... Bizarre phobia of changing her oil. I have a local mechanic I've taken 3 cars to over the last 10 years (maintenance stuff, not oil changes) --> they do an amazing job. When my dad died, I basically told her: you take it to the shop, they change the oil, I pay for it. It's free. Shed fight me tooth n nail, saying no, her car didn't need it, she didn't want it. Id come over n change her oil and shed panic, afraid the car would, and I quote "explode." Furthermore... After id change the oil... She'd go "it drives funny, I heard a noise, the brake pedal feels weird" a laundry list of just made up nonsense. For some people... I guess they'd rather have to deal with thousands upon thousands of dollars of damages and a lost vehicle --> than face the fear of getting their oil changed.
Your Mom is your basic ignorant and stubborn female. Probably spoiled to boot and always told how wonderful she was. Women like this are why men have through-out history ran things. Her thoughts are all based on feelings and fears with no factual basis.
Oh nah man I worked as a detailer for Carmax cleaning all the cars we bought off of people on trade-ins. I would say 60% of all family cars look like this and it's frightening. Its always average, normal looking people, too. Well groomed, but claim that they're just too busy with their jobs and kids to clean the car. Blows my mind. At the time I was working and going to school full time and essentially lived in my car (put a mattress in the trunk) and it looked factory new despite working or learning 16 hours a day. I have no idea how people let it get that bad, or how the hell its so common...
For the cars with no oil changes...I GUARANTEE you the owners all said something like "I was never told I have to do that"...which is exactly what the young woman next door said when i told her she shouldn't be running her central A/C unit with the winter cover still on.
Yes, some people are just never taught. I knew a guy in high school who thought you just topped the oil up when it was low, because that is what his father did. Also met a lot of people who don't know to stop the car immediately when the oil pressure light comes on.
I can't accurately tell you how many times I've had to watch out both ways when pulling out of a spot at the grocery store. But the answer is "higher than zero"
@@SilverStarHeggisist I highly doubt many people wouldnt know anything about what a an oil change is considering dealerships always offer their own maintenance on signing.
@mspetersen, what I hate is the fact that some people seem to drive their vehicles with reckless abandon and yet can do so for thousands and thousands of miles YET those of us who spend all that money to buy our vehicles and try to take good care of them end up having all sorts of problems anyway with system/component failures because of poor design/cheap materials and the manufacturers just get away with it, selling such garbage for tens of thousands whilst passing the known problems right on to their customers to have to pay out of pocket for the repairs....
@@SilverStarHeggisist Do cars not let you know in the US? Where I live, the dash on "modern" cars will tell you something to the effect of "Please service the vehicle" after some amount of kilometers driven.
@@El_Negro2003 its not supposed to be, it should be to fix cars not deal with filthy cars and complete idiots, i can understand the people who made mechanical mistakes were just trying there best but i am genuinely concerned for people who keep their car as filthy as some of those, smth must be wrong with them mentally
@@kylewarner9822maybe, but they got the money to pay someone else to clean up after them. If the detailer is well off enough to refuse to service that nasty vehicle, that’s fine, and totally his call. Someone wanting work with a “no job too big” business motto will do it though.
@@kylewarner9822 There's nothing stopping these mechanics from hiring a cleaning company that specializes in biohazard/crime scenes to clean up before them if they feel that they shouldn't do it, or just refusing and telling the customer to deal with it. Instead, they recorded themselves cleaning it while shaming the customers, and monetized the footage. That's their choice, and they can deal with the resulting lifestyle that comes with it.
As a mechanic I've seen vehicles like this but I refused to work on them. As a tow truck driver I've towed vehicles that the shop refused to work on it and I towed it back to the owners home. It's unbelievable that people treat an expensive purchase like these people.
As a paramedic who worked in a very rural area (think banjos) I have seen this type of thing time and time again. There are also many reasons why they came to be that way. I know this because I didn't have the luxury of refusing to work on them. 😆 A few of the reasons: people are so poor they don't care. Apathy is dangerous on so many levels. People know they can't afford to get something fixed so they run it into the ground because they have no choice. There's ignorance. They honestly don't know how to clean anything properly or don't see the sense in picking up clutter. They think it's okay if "they ain't nothin growing in it!" Then there's the medical issues that preclude someone from taking care of themselves properly and no family to help fill in the gaps and no insurance or money to hire someone to help fill in the gaps. Then there's just the lazy people who just are too lazy to take care of themselves. They rely on the kindness of family and strangers. People refusing or being unable to care for themselves for complex and many fold in most cases.
I live in small town Ala, and it is scary to drive because there are so many incompetent people on the road. Maui were I lived for six years was as bad or worse.. Plus add in the fact that people are on their phones, highly medicated, distracted, drunk, high, or just plain crazy..
It drives me crazy. Had a dude bring in a car that had a failed flex pipe on the exhaust. Went through all the motions to work up an estimate. Call the guy and tell him what it'll cost to fix. "Oh, I've got that whole section of the exhaust on order, I was looking for a cheap fix." I wish I was making that up.
@@Luis_slides Then you’re probably not understanding what you’re looking at on most of this stuff. I’d also venture to say that you greatly underestimate how incredibly cheap/broke people can be.
I thought my wife's vehicle was unsafe, so I took it in for a quote; and knew ahead of time that if the costs was going to be too much, I was going to park the vehicle instead.. It was 26 years old; and in hindsight, I should paid to have fixed it up. But it likely would have cost well over 5K toward 10K in repairs; the wife wanted to continue to drive it despite the issues. Sort of regret selling it, especially at the price that I sold it for. Don't ask.
As a landlord, I always take a look at my potential tenants' cars. How well you take care of your car is a fantastic indicator of how well you will take care of the property.
Best one I saw was a Dodge Ram 2500 with a squeek in the engine compartment. Upon inspection the technician found a kitten stuck between the inner and outer fender panels. The panels are not frame supporting, so the customer agreed to let the tech cut a hole in the inner fender as long as he cleaned and painted the hole to prevent corrosion so we wouldn't have to get the body shop involved. Tech offered to do it for free if he could keep the cat. Customer is happy and the tech took "Hemi" home that night. . Fun Fact: Colorado also has pack rats, so we have seen multiple cases of "low power" and "won't start" because a critter had completely filled the air filter housing with dog food. In one case the rat's nest with mom and little babies was included! Found by Hemi's new owner not a week later. So Bill became known as "The Animal"
Back in the day there was a number of cases of cats crawling up into the fan shrouds of warm recently shut off Land Rover engines with disastrous results (for the cats) when the engines were restarted some time later.... We designed and sold a fan guard to prevent this.
IT'S PACK RATS??? I've been working as a mechanic for only about 2 years now in Colorado and I've never been able to figure out how the intake plenums get crammed with dog food. Thank you for explaining that, nobody else has been able to 😂
Screw getting a credit check you should have to pass a basic maintenance quiz to own a new car. As a manager of a shop and the owner of a 2014 Ford escape with 245k miles on it all factory, motor, trans, ect. it hurts my soul seeing these newer cars getting messed up by pure stupidity.
"Customer shot his car trying to check if the gun was loaded" I don't think it takes a major gun nut to understand that you DON'T check if it's loaded by firing it. Just pull the damn slide/bolt back!
I am anti-littering, and will accumulate some trash in my car, but never that much, and it all gets cleaned out before I ask someone else to enter the car either for a ride or to do work.
The newer oils will not stand being unchanged, but 50 years ago when I was working on really big diesels (20,000 HP) we came across one where the oil had turned to a black sludge .The engine had been run too cold. In recent times a friend was Given an AMG 63 engine ,complete ,which had less than 40,000 kms and was chock full of sludge. On another note ,I've often been asked to do work on cars which resemble the inside of a bars dumpster. Doing the air con on these is awful .One day a colleague was getting really angry with the stink and made the observation that if "the owners car smells like this imagine what she smells like " ( words changed so as not to offend lol)
I wouldn’t even touch if the owner removed of the nasty ass stuff. I check cars in that are salvage for the auction and the amounts of cars that are disgusting is astonishing, way more than you think.
Those vehicles are why I keep a respirator in my toolbox and know where the paint suits for the body shop on the other side of the building are. Just in case my shop looses it's collective mind and accepts one, and I have to work on it.
I have more then once been assigned a car to work on, walked out to it and then walked back informing my boss that I am not touching that car. In one case the boss drove it in and out for me (I was just working under the car), in other case he wouldn't even get in it.
@davidknight3249, I wondered myself WHERE these Mechanics live to have people bringing vehicles to them in such deplorable conditions. I don't live in "Martha's Vineyard" or "90210" but I've only seen 3 vehicles in my entire lifetime that looked like any of these, 2 in passing along the highway and one in a Kmart parking lot, when those still existed.... In each case, they looked "lived out of" although you couldn't really say that when the vehicles were so full of papers, food & plain JUNK, there was barely room for the drivers to fit.
I think I should start my own repair shop, I have everything that you need for this: duct tape, spray foam, zip ties and even DEF for refilling the window washer. What could go wrong?
DEF is a total scam by the government. Temporarily removing the soot, then blows out the collected soot out into the atmosphere. Not to mention the extra time doing regen.
i work in a dealer and we often get ppl who dont wanna change their brakes or tires that are clearly finished and you see the baby seat in the back...man
The scary thing is the people who have service plans and don't get the car serviced. Also the I didn't know I had to have the oil changed. And we share the road with these geniuses.
I had a neighbor who suffered from this acute lack of oil change problem. He thought it was normal, and he took no responsibility for his role in the demise of his car.
@fredygump5578 I would argue that it's both acute and chronic. Chronic doesn't really talk about the intensity of what it's describing, only the length of time or frequency. Also, most people think of acute as the opposite of chronic but acute technically only means sharp or severe. There is actually no mention of short-term, like most people think. So, they aren't mutually exclusive. Most people just think that they are because that's how they're used. If forced to use only one, I would say chronic technically fits better because it's a reoccurring failure to change their oil at required intervals that piled together to create this (acute) disaster. Missing one oil change might not break the engine but missing many will. (And we wonder why English is hard for people to learn as a second language. 🙃) As an example of the "both acute and chronic can be used together" idea, I've seen it used in the medical field before as something like "chronic acute pain". When a (former) insurance plan of mine tried to deny my very cheap gout medicine, my doctor wrote that "failure to adhere to the established regimen would lead to chronic acute pain in multiple joints due to uric acid crystal build up before eventually leading to bone damage that would be able to be traced directly to this denial of coverage." (Insurance covered it after that! Yeah, I could've paid out of pocket it was so cheap but there was 0 reason for them to deny it and I wasn't gonna let them screw me over. It was about the principle of it all.)
Oh my God my sister is like this. I brought it up to her once and she was like "at least I don't keep food in there" and I mentioned there was a weird sticky log in one of the compartments and she went "oh that's the pretzel I licked all the salt off of I must've forgotten it" like WHATT!?!?
@@TheGahta there was a guy in one of episodes that did just that. he had mice in the car, then released a snake because he couldnt find the mice. then he couldnt find the snake.
Jesus, I am old school, so when I get a new car I change the oil after the 1st thousand miles and every 5000 after that. It took some research to get me to wait the 5000 and not 3500, but I also do a ton of wide open interstate driving. These videos never cease to amaze me. And, basic car knowledge should be part of the requirements for a drivers license.
1:30 THAT is how you check, opposed to just looking in the chamber? And THEN you also take this to a car shop and tell them? This person is a danger to society (I mean, more so than the rest of the people whose stories show up here).
I have a friend married for years. His wife hates it. But nobody can fit in his truck and the kids never can go outside because the yard is full of dangerous crap . She’s a neat freak and his yard I swear an airplane flies over it daily dropping garbage 😂
08:15 people who could even get into a car like that, much less get it in that state themselves have clearly got serious mental health issues. It's like people living in squalid conditions. Only serious depression could cause someone to live like that.
I worked at a Dodge shop for 7 years. I've seen some of these cars. We got in an old Dodge Omni in for service that had ash caked up in every crack and hole in the interior it was like cement. The passenger side was 5 inches deep in butts. The back seat was so full of empty cigarette packs it was level with the headrest. Car just needed basic maintenance since the drivetrain was very well maintained. One of our techs was this crusty old dude who happened to be a Marlboro smoker. he told the owner if he could take all the Marlboro Miles from the empty packs and cartons he'd do the brakes for free. 2 weeks later he walked in with a brand new leather Marlboro racing jacket. Very high quality too. Marlboro didn't screw around with cheap merch back then (1997). That jacket I think was somewhere around 3000 Miles. 5 miles per pack. 300 packs of Marlboros or 6000 cigarettes. I figure the miles to be worth roughly $0.20 each, so that jacket was around $350 with shipping and handling. Brake job was $200. Cancer aside, Mike got a deal! ...and yes, Mike died in 2002 from lung cancer and emphazema.
ayo hot tip: you can click people's profile picture on pc now and it'll show you a brief overview of their channel and how much they've participated in the channel they're commenting on I figured I'd tell you since you have TEN hearts from him! (Possibly 11 since I don't think it counts this comment if it's the one you clicked on) I've never seen someone with so many hearted comments!
I'm no expert when it comes to wrenching on my vehicle, and I'm no Mr. Clean either, but every time I see these videos, I end up feeling like the Einstein of the motoring world!
How can anyone not take care of their car? It's one of the most important and expensive things you'll own... some of these cars aren't cheap and yet get used as ashtrays... yuk
Like seriously, how? The getting your fluids mixed up is at least fairly understandable in comparison, but hand sanitizer? That shouldn't be going ANYWHERE in there!
I went to collect a car a few years ago for a service and MOT (Mandatory annual safety inspection.) I declined do even open the door,,let alone get in. There was standing water in it, mould over everything, plants growing in it, the rear was filled with rubbish (mostly partially empty milk cartons, some of which has burst as the milk rotted) and lots and lots of flies, both dead and alive. A week later the owner drove the car to me to be worked on. I declined. Again. By this time the MOT had expired, so the vehicle was no longer legal to drive on public roads. I informed all co-workers they were, under no circumstances, to enter the vehicle, suck a ‘biohazard’ sticker to the driver’s windows, and told the owner to either scrap it or remove it. It got scrapped.
3:31 Out of everything up to this point in the video, this is the most baffling. Was the customer, like, trying to throw their spent butts out through the sunroof?
i worked emergency crew/wrecker for vdot, and i'd say about 1 out of 3 vehicles are pig sties, that coincidently aren't maintained well by owners. this is a lot more common than you think.
Thats just insane… like I might need to clean the floorboards of my car with a vacuum because I’m a bit lazy. XD But if my car was like some of these I’d feel totally embarrassed going anywhere… Also.. I dont understand with some of these cars… packed full… how are you going to put groceries inside? When there is no room.
The dead fish? Car owner made someone really mad. That's like putting 'em in the printer. Or hiding them in the curtain rods or the heating vents. Not that I've ever done that. I'm evil, but I'm not *that* evil, lol
Some of these shops must be very hard up for work if they are touching some of these vehicles. I worked for a shop whose owner would personally check each customer's vehicle. No way would he make us work on most of these,especially with those interiors.😂 Loved that boss! ❤
An oil change should cost between 20 and 60 depending on oil, filter, and quantity of oil, and if you are also doing the air filters. Don't buy McDonalds for a week and you could cover the oil change for the year. FFS
Bro how do some people live with themselves??? Jesus Christ man I gotta vacuum my entire car as soon as i see a little build up of dirt on the floor mat, and its a 03!!!!

As a mechanic I've seen vehicles like this but I refused to work on them. As a tow truck driver I've towed vehicles that the shop refused to work on it and I towed it back to the owners home. It's unbelievable that people treat an expensive purchase like these people.
Medical issues can cause this.
Some family don't take care. Some folks never learned or never learned social skills.
It's in their DNA since daddy and mommy were the same way.
As a paramedic who worked in a very rural area (think banjos) I have seen this type of thing time and time again. There are also many reasons why they came to be that way. I know this because I didn't have the luxury of refusing to work on them. 😆
A few of the reasons: people are so poor they don't care. Apathy is dangerous on so many levels. People know they can't afford to get something fixed so they run it into the ground because they have no choice. There's ignorance. They honestly don't know how to clean anything properly or don't see the sense in picking up clutter. They think it's okay if "they ain't nothin growing in it!"
Then there's the medical issues that preclude someone from taking care of themselves properly and no family to help fill in the gaps and no insurance or money to hire someone to help fill in the gaps. Then there's just the lazy people who just are too lazy to take care of themselves. They rely on the kindness of family and strangers. People refusing or being unable to care for themselves for complex and many fold in most cases.

These videos so help my self esteem. I have done some stupid stuff in my 50 years but thankfully nothing that can touch the these levels.
You're right we used to have Jerry Springer to do this service for us.
why do I keep watching these videos?! they give me mild panic attacks 🤣
I’m stressed when my windscreen is dirty but the condition of some of these cars is mind blowing.

Your videos are scarier than most of the road rage videos I watch. So many dangerous vehicles out there, and you show us a handful per video
I live in small town Ala, and it is scary to drive because there are so many incompetent people on the road. Maui were I lived for six years was as bad or worse.. Plus add in the fact that people are on their phones, highly medicated, distracted, drunk, high, or just plain crazy..
Right? These videos are horrifying. Both because of the condition of some of the vehicles and the stupidity of many of the owners.
It is a feature of vehicles operating in 3rd world countries like USA!
0:45 "Hey my truck hasent been serviced in two year" *is told truck needs service, declines*
like why go to the mechanic then
It drives me crazy. Had a dude bring in a car that had a failed flex pipe on the exhaust. Went through all the motions to work up an estimate. Call the guy and tell him what it'll cost to fix. "Oh, I've got that whole section of the exhaust on order, I was looking for a cheap fix." I wish I was making that up.
prob thought it was too expensive once they gave him a quote
They probably lied about customer declining services, I don’t believe half what some techs be saying
@@Luis_slides Then you’re probably not understanding what you’re looking at on most of this stuff. I’d also venture to say that you greatly underestimate how incredibly cheap/broke people can be.
I thought my wife's vehicle was unsafe, so I took it in for a quote; and knew ahead of time that if the costs was going to be too much, I was going to park the vehicle instead.. It was 26 years old; and in hindsight, I should paid to have fixed it up. But it likely would have cost well over 5K toward 10K in repairs; the wife wanted to continue to drive it despite the issues. Sort of regret selling it, especially at the price that I sold it for. Don't ask.
“Too early for this” resonates with all technicians
As a landlord, I always take a look at my potential tenants' cars. How well you take care of your car is a fantastic indicator of how well you will take care of the property.
Brilliant!
That’s excellent advice!
My car looks like a piece of sheet but is mechanically sound. As are most mechanics cars. But otherwise yes I generally agree with you.
@@ratgreen I assume it has no bullet holes, then 😅
@@DollarDude are you allowed to reject a prospective tenants application based on the state of their car?
Best one I saw was a Dodge Ram 2500 with a squeek in the engine compartment. Upon inspection the technician found a kitten stuck between the inner and outer fender panels. The panels are not frame supporting, so the customer agreed to let the tech cut a hole in the inner fender as long as he cleaned and painted the hole to prevent corrosion so we wouldn't have to get the body shop involved. Tech offered to do it for free if he could keep the cat. Customer is happy and the tech took "Hemi" home that night.
.
Fun Fact: Colorado also has pack rats, so we have seen multiple cases of "low power" and "won't start" because a critter had completely filled the air filter housing with dog food. In one case the rat's nest with mom and little babies was included! Found by Hemi's new owner not a week later. So Bill became known as "The Animal"
Back in the day there was a number of cases of cats crawling up into the fan shrouds of warm recently shut off Land Rover engines with disastrous results (for the cats) when the engines were restarted some time later.... We designed and sold a fan guard to prevent this.
IT'S PACK RATS??? I've been working as a mechanic for only about 2 years now in Colorado and I've never been able to figure out how the intake plenums get crammed with dog food. Thank you for explaining that, nobody else has been able to 😂
Screw getting a credit check you should have to pass a basic maintenance quiz to own a new car. As a manager of a shop and the owner of a 2014 Ford escape with 245k miles on it all factory, motor, trans, ect. it hurts my soul seeing these newer cars getting messed up by pure stupidity.
Thats why they have a speedlimit and we in germany dont. Took me half a year for my license which is common here lol
In Germany we say: "I don't even want to know what their homes look like"

I am anti-littering, and will accumulate some trash in my car, but never that much, and it all gets cleaned out before I ask someone else to enter the car either for a ride or to do work.
HAHAHA Is this how we're gonna square this circle?
The newer oils will not stand being unchanged, but 50 years ago when I was working on really big diesels (20,000 HP) we came across one where the oil had turned to a black sludge .The engine had been run too cold. In recent times a friend was Given an AMG 63 engine ,complete ,which had less than 40,000 kms and was chock full of sludge.
On another note ,I've often been asked to do work on cars which resemble the inside of a bars dumpster. Doing the air con on these is awful .One day a colleague was getting really angry with the stink and made the observation that if "the owners car smells like this imagine what she smells like " ( words changed so as not to offend lol)
I'll never think my car is dirty again!
Me either. 😂😂😂
I just want to scream "WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU?" Why would any shop work on those vehicles that are a serious health hazard. DON'T DO IT!
I wouldn’t even touch if the owner removed of the nasty ass stuff. I check cars in that are salvage for the auction and the amounts of cars that are disgusting is astonishing, way more than you think.
Those vehicles are why I keep a respirator in my toolbox and know where the paint suits for the body shop on the other side of the building are. Just in case my shop looses it's collective mind and accepts one, and I have to work on it.
" looks like you've got some car in your mold, sir" ... 🙄
I have more then once been assigned a car to work on, walked out to it and then walked back informing my boss that I am not touching that car. In one case the boss drove it in and out for me (I was just working under the car), in other case he wouldn't even get in it.
@davidknight3249, I wondered myself WHERE these Mechanics live to have people bringing vehicles to them in such deplorable conditions. I don't live in "Martha's Vineyard" or "90210" but I've only seen 3 vehicles in my entire lifetime that looked like any of these, 2 in passing along the highway and one in a Kmart parking lot, when those still existed.... In each case, they looked "lived out of" although you couldn't really say that when the vehicles were so full of papers, food & plain JUNK, there was barely room for the drivers to fit.
As a diy mechanic, sometimes I do stupid stuff. I don't think I've approached anything worthy of comparison to these stories... Yet 😂
I think I should start my own repair shop, I have everything that you need for this: duct tape, spray foam, zip ties and even DEF for refilling the window washer. What could go wrong?
Keep lots of beer on hand so's ya can refill the def yerself !!
DEF is a total scam by the government. Temporarily removing the soot, then blows out the collected soot out into the atmosphere. Not to mention the extra time doing regen.
I’d get an industrial vacuum cleaner too.
And a Hazmat Suit.

The scary thing is the people who have service plans and don't get the car serviced. Also the I didn't know I had to have the oil changed. And we share the road with these geniuses.
Ah, sweet. Nearly 14 minutes of images that inflict psychic damage on anyone who understands anything about cars. My favorite.

Right, and I always clean it out before getting any type of service.
Yeah I accumulate about a week's worth of junk mail and start to feel crowded.
I keep a little garbage can in my car for trash and forget sometimes to empty it and it'll overflow a little bit and I feel bad, not anymore.

I had a neighbor who suffered from this acute lack of oil change problem. He thought it was normal, and he took no responsibility for his role in the demise of his car.
I had a neighbor that NEVER washed his car... you can only imagine when his sunroof started leaking, vents stopped working from all the buildup!
@@cigarsgunsanddiesel8032🤢
youre using acute wrong, it should be a chronic lack of oil change problem lol
@@Mr_Smackle Chrnoic would usually means long term but less severe? Acute is more severe in my book.
@fredygump5578 I would argue that it's both acute and chronic. Chronic doesn't really talk about the intensity of what it's describing, only the length of time or frequency. Also, most people think of acute as the opposite of chronic but acute technically only means sharp or severe. There is actually no mention of short-term, like most people think. So, they aren't mutually exclusive. Most people just think that they are because that's how they're used. If forced to use only one, I would say chronic technically fits better because it's a reoccurring failure to change their oil at required intervals that piled together to create this (acute) disaster. Missing one oil change might not break the engine but missing many will. (And we wonder why English is hard for people to learn as a second language. 🙃)
As an example of the "both acute and chronic can be used together" idea, I've seen it used in the medical field before as something like "chronic acute pain". When a (former) insurance plan of mine tried to deny my very cheap gout medicine, my doctor wrote that "failure to adhere to the established regimen would lead to chronic acute pain in multiple joints due to uric acid crystal build up before eventually leading to bone damage that would be able to be traced directly to this denial of coverage." (Insurance covered it after that! Yeah, I could've paid out of pocket it was so cheap but there was 0 reason for them to deny it and I wasn't gonna let them screw me over. It was about the principle of it all.)
OMG the cars with trash in the drivers foot well! That is a death trap. Having something get lodged under the brake pedal is super dangerous.

I was just about to comment on the mental health of some of these car owners.
I worked at a Dodge shop for 7 years. I've seen some of these cars. We got in an old Dodge Omni in for service that had ash caked up in every crack and hole in the interior it was like cement. The passenger side was 5 inches deep in butts. The back seat was so full of empty cigarette packs it was level with the headrest. Car just needed basic maintenance since the drivetrain was very well maintained. One of our techs was this crusty old dude who happened to be a Marlboro smoker. he told the owner if he could take all the Marlboro Miles from the empty packs and cartons he'd do the brakes for free. 2 weeks later he walked in with a brand new leather Marlboro racing jacket. Very high quality too. Marlboro didn't screw around with cheap merch back then (1997). That jacket I think was somewhere around 3000 Miles. 5 miles per pack. 300 packs of Marlboros or 6000 cigarettes. I figure the miles to be worth roughly $0.20 each, so that jacket was around $350 with shipping and handling. Brake job was $200. Cancer aside, Mike got a deal! ...and yes, Mike died in 2002 from lung cancer and emphazema.
Likely the most stunning episode yet!

I went to collect a car a few years ago for a service and MOT (Mandatory annual safety inspection.)
I declined do even open the door,,let alone get in.
There was standing water in it, mould over everything, plants growing in it, the rear was filled with rubbish (mostly partially empty milk cartons, some of which has burst as the milk rotted) and lots and lots of flies, both dead and alive.
A week later the owner drove the car to me to be worked on. I declined. Again.
By this time the MOT had expired, so the vehicle was no longer legal to drive on public roads.
I informed all co-workers they were, under no circumstances, to enter the vehicle, suck a ‘biohazard’ sticker to the driver’s windows, and told the owner to either scrap it or remove it.
It got scrapped.
3:31 Out of everything up to this point in the video, this is the most baffling. Was the customer, like, trying to throw their spent butts out through the sunroof?
