How in the he11 was the Truck's frame problem only discovered after countless hours of work was performed with replacing the engine and transmission???
I am finding it very hard to believe that shop "didn't notice" the fucked friont end on that truck until AFTER they unstalled an engine and transmission.
It's incredible the number of people who don't perform simple maintenance on their vehicles. Not only costly but dangerous on the road. A little saves a lot. Not surprising considering most people drive their vehicles with no regard for others on the road. And what happened to taking a look yourself under the hood, or peeking under the car every now and then. I'll bet most don't even know where the hood latch or dipstick is, or how to change a tire. So sad. Love cars and love to drive. Thanks for the clips!
people a fucking stupid man. oil changes and filter replacements are a MUST. half these clips remind me of that woman in a red dress that just splashed an entire jug of oil under the hood of her car in a gas station parking lot.
That last clip...I'll bet the customer was at a different shop. And they recommended the customer to change the parking brakes. So he change'd the button😭😂😂😂
The car with the broken shock mount was a mazda.. likely a mazda 3. They're all like that. And if they aren't they will be very soon!!! I've done about a hundred sets. Gotta love cheap cast aluminum parts after road salt makes love to them 😣😂
I've owned many vehicles. But I've never had vehicles with the frames that fucked up or transmissions or transfer cases cracked open. I have had two engines throw a rod, but they were high miler and used too me. Fixed one with a new engine and the other went to the wrecker. My question is, what are these people doing with these vehicles.
From my experience it is also possible it's a drive belt tensioner. I have seen the hydraulic oil leak out of the tensioner and it makes that exact same noise quite common on Toyota vehicles.
2:32 "Bigger issues found after the install" Yeah, Bullshit. That's an asshole shop is what that is lol. I guess I kinda understand dealing with idiots all the time and they bring this and you're just like "Okay bud"
It's fine... I drove it in here... 😂 Shops around here will make you tow it out if you refuse the work, because it is unsafe to drive. If stuff gets too serious the State Police are called.
I like the guy with the broken front suspension parts arguing with the manager about driving it back out of the shop because he got it to the shop just fine. -_- These people are the ones sharing the road with you... and people like this are the reason I quit doing mechanic work. WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU CAN'T TURN THE ROTORS... blah blah blah... What do you mean you can't align my car cuz the tires are down the cord... it's like yeah I'm not taking on the responsibility of you going down the street after I do it and your tire blows etc. What do YOU MEAN MY FRAME IS BROKEN and the car isn't safe to leave under its own power... Yeah, I'm just trying to do repairs that don't need to be done Mr customer.
Unfortunately no there's not. Anything driving related in this country is so unsafe it's ridiculous. From being able to get your driver's license a couple days with no studying to cars from the 60s missing control arms and floorboards still being considered road legal. There are people here that don't even know what half the lights are on the dash.
The broken transmission in the first clip was caused by a badly worn double cardan joint on the front driveshaft. Trans is now at a transmission shop getting the case replaced to the tune of about $4000.
@@theglitch99 I dunno, welding cast metal is always hard. Even with aluminum, you have tons of impurities in the casting and the weld will just fail again.
Thanks for the followup. I wish some others would do it. The number of cracked and exploded driveline components on this and similar channels just blows my mind. That used to be very rare
i've noticed a pattern of the old toyota truck owners.they seem to have the illusion that when you buy a toyota, maintenence is no longer a need, my neighbors 99 tacoma is in as bad shape as the one shown.they think as long as the engine starts everything is fine.even though it shakes itself apart over 45 mph & the frame looks like swiss cheeze.they proudly say "it still runs".perhaps they should drive it to the dump & leave it there.
What kind of emergency would you even use the parking brake??? If it’s electronic it won’t engage if it’s moving anyway… makes 0 sense. If the parking pawl fails and you NEED to use it, it wouldn’t take but 10 seconds to clear the coins and apply the epb
maybe 18k kilometers, since that's ~10k miles and some manufacturers recommend that. but no way should any passenger car be going 18k miles on the same oil
A rat chewing off a few wires isn't to bad, I had a rat chew through the coolant hose on an 08 yaris and they don't have a temperature gauge for some stupid reason, ended up having to skin the head and replace the head gasket
Eletronic parking brakes are for... wait for it.... PARKING!! Not emergency!.... In manual transmissions car's they are the only park brakes, since manual gearboxs dont have Park Mode...
@@AndreReisRodrigues Some people do believe that you should use the parking brake in an emergency, and some people would be dumb enough to actually do it.
After seeing so many rusted chassis in these videos and working on some American cars at home in Australia I have to say I really don’t think American steel is up to the standards of Australia. I have never in my life seen a car as rusted and still on the road in this country!!!! That is some serious problem you guys have or you are all taking your cars in the salt water for a wash ?!? What the hell is going on with American steel?
@@stevenpollard5171 everyone knows texas doesn't treat their roads in winter,I don't think they have any snowplow either,at least I haven't seen any,encountered ice and snow a couple of times and the only thing I've seen is trucks and cars in ditches.
@@ibrahimcehajic I lived in the Dallas area for five yeas in the early '80's. A good, heavy frost, and the ditches along the interstates would be filled. I, the Yankee, would sometimes be the only one who'd make it to work.
There's got to be a law to stop people from driving away from the shop when their vehicle's in an extremely unsafe condition. Driving while knowing your rotors are withering away or your steering racks snapped or some other bs should be grounds for revoking your license. I'm not gonna die in a fiery car accident because some funny guy doesn't wanna shell out a few hundred bucks to make sure their rust bucket doesn't become a missile
Moral of the story,buy your cars from California, where they don't put salt on the roads...I think?...I'm guessing that's why you see so.many Yankee cars with rusted out frames ...is that road salting sponsored by car companies ..making sure your cars funked after 5years...sure seems like its not worth it to an ignorant Aussie like me...
As a German mechanic I'm you glad I can refuse the plea from a client to get his car back if it's not street safe
If I ever feel down about one of my cars needing repairs I just watch these videos and I feel better
I do the same, i have my car back, but it was being serviced for 3 weeks so i was kinda being more and more paranoid for no reason... this helped.
How in the he11 was the Truck's frame problem only discovered after countless hours of work was performed with replacing the engine and transmission???
That's what im saying, they probably wanted the pay from the labor to install the engine
Not possible. They had to unbolt and rebolt the engine to the motor mounts and frame.
Could be it held at the time and gave out after the install
A little embellishment when the video was submitted
@@machineman6498 Should be an offense.

As soon as I saw that rotted out shock mount I knew it had to be an Escape. They're notorious for that.
My first one I was was in 2015, and it was an ‘18.
But to escapes defense
It was Fargo
North Dakota
That last clip...I'll bet the customer was at a different shop. And they recommended the customer to change the parking brakes. So he change'd the button😭😂😂😂
1:56 It's not the ignition coil wiring, but the injector wiring😂
I work at a body shop and that tiny part in a giant box is too common. Then you have other parts come in beat up or broken because of no packaging
2:48 if the shop noticed that after the install someone should get fired.
How did they not catch that rotten frame when they were removing the engine???
The car with the broken shock mount was a mazda.. likely a mazda 3. They're all like that. And if they aren't they will be very soon!!! I've done about a hundred sets. Gotta love cheap cast aluminum parts after road salt makes love to them 😣😂
When customer asks me what causes that to happen I normally answer "father time and mother nature aren't nice to cars and parts"👍😂
@@TwoTenTwice So not nice that they hire Uncle Salt to assassinate them...
1:55 that is a injector harness not an ignition coil harness. 🤦♂🤷♂
I'm glad someone said something lol, but maybe we are wrong and they are now using gasoline filled coils and plugs.
I saw that too.
2:34 what the hell is wrong with that thing? Rotten frame rail? That sucks they didn't catch it till AFTER putting in a new engine and trans lol

Live in the right place you can daily a car for 40 years without any rust. Live in the wrong place and you can rust through your frame in 10 years.
Just think... these people think it's OK to roll down the highway next to your wife and kids...
The majority doesn't know, and this is a state problem, as most don't have required inspections.
🤷♂️ 😁 how many have the wife and kids riding in these fine autos.
Camry noise was likely a heat shield for the exhaust
From my experience it is also possible it's a drive belt tensioner. I have seen the hydraulic oil leak out of the tensioner and it makes that exact same noise quite common on Toyota vehicles.
I have the same noise but it only does it when I first start it on a cold day, as soon as the car warms up it goes away
Ignition coils that shoot fuel honda is ahead of the game
I heared that 🙈
That's what I was thinking but oh well... lol
5:34 more then likely torque converter. I’ve heard that more then once when they’re installed wrong or come loose or have issues.
Amazing some of these made it to the shop at all.😀
2:32 "Bigger issues found after the install" Yeah, Bullshit. That's an asshole shop is what that is lol. I guess I kinda understand dealing with idiots all the time and they bring this and you're just like "Okay bud"

And mechanics are ALWAYS trying to rip you off.... LOL
6:15 mercedes does that too. Tiny parts in way too big boxes. Every single tiny nut in a seperate plastic bag and stuff like that
love these damn videos, never stops amazing me how stupid or lazy people can be
They have two jobs, and are still broke... Living the dream.
They're good for teaching non mechanics like myself, what not to do or neglect.
Makes me glad we have rigorous annual safety inspections.
I find it hard to believe that Escape even went to auction like that, nor allow it to be sold in the shown condition.
Is it not a thing in America to require a yearly inspection? The rusted out parts are clearly a number of years worth.
Unfortunately no there's not. Anything driving related in this country is so unsafe it's ridiculous.

It's a parking brake. Not an emergency brake. I don't think they'll even apply while rolling.
They do. You can’t do a E-Brake turn without it locking up the back tires for a second.
The broken transmission in the first clip was caused by a badly worn double cardan joint on the front driveshaft. Trans is now at a transmission shop getting the case replaced to the tune of about $4000.
OUCH!!!
it can't just be welded? Silicone? If it worked why not. Just wondering for 4k why not try!
Or in my case…
To

@The GLITCH the whole trans would still have to be torn down. I don't work for a shade tree guy, he doesn't want to be married to it forever. Lol
these videos give me so much anxiety
4:17 Mazda 3. Why did they choose magnesium...
That last one with the parking brake is dumbest shot ever, Subarus come with change trays!!!
Seen this with 90's jeep cherokees when you try to "upgrade" the cooler line fittings. 1 inch pound too tight, it splits the case.
Transmission WAS leaking lol
Yes it was but the customer drove it to the shop and I drove it onto the lift before it was out of fluid.
That Toyota was scary!
Parking brakes aren't for emergencies, they're for parking.
Wow 😮just wow! Good thing a drive a boat 🛥 😎
Awesome video by my friend
Those old tacomas have a tendency to bust when lifted on a hoist when rusted it happened once to my coworker
I have had almost the same exact things happen to my rc cars and trucks over the years I can't imagine this kind of work on a real car yikes
Parking brake. Emergency. Parking brake. Emergency. Repeat until the "ohhhhhhhh" moment. Remember when the (US) DOT and NHTSA were not a joke?

Toyota drivers aren't the brightest.

With that type of switch, you usually pull up to apply the brake.
4:37 - Heater was selected at all times.
3:10 What's the issue with this car? The pump?
2:09 my LP’s are thicker than that rotor!
In UK, manufacturers stating around 18k miles between oil changes is pretty common these days.
maybe 18k kilometers, since that's ~10k miles and some manufacturers recommend that. but no way should any passenger car be going 18k miles on the same oil
Apparently a fuel injector is now an "ignition coil harness"
That crac in the tranny case was WAAAAAY worse than the one in our 97 POS TAURUS
Please tell me what state all these rusted out cars are from so I never move there.
A rat chewing off a few wires isn't to bad, I had a rat chew through the coolant hose on an 08 yaris and they don't have a temperature gauge for some stupid reason, ended up having to skin the head and replace the head gasket

Bro what are you talking about that brake rotor looks great it’s got another like 25,000 miles to go
England have 1 M.O.T A year all cars it's a pain in the ass but you know your car will be ok afterwards
It costs from £40 TO 45 a year
Unless it's over 40 years old, then it's exempt. Figure out the sense in that. (MOT = safety inspection)

2:08 They got full value from those brakes.
