Every car deserves an owner, but not every owner deserves a car 🤣
I can't fathom the dedication to zero maintenance it must take to produce some of these gems.
Man it feels like they not only neglect maintenance but also Find ways to make everything worse
Can't spend $200 in maintenance? Then spend $2000 in repairs. Love the ones about the "egg sauce".
Yeah these people get what they deserve. Hopefully. Unless they sell it to some poor dude in the meantime.
I love it when people say they can't afford oil changes. I ask them what makes them think they can afford an engine change? Even better when it's a beamer bro... I wanna say get a 2007 Camry, you'll have plenty left over for oil.
@@timh9537 They say they cant afford an oil change. They mean they dont want to, because they think they need the latest iphone for 1500$.
"Foolproof" reaching another dimension.
Yeah fr just Ya annoying how people do this crap. Like the ones that piss me off the most are the people who don’t call a tow truck or replace the tire with a spare if they have it blow out on the freeway and just keep driving and grind down everything to and have to get 2000 dollars in parts when they should have called a tow truck and spend maybe if even 200 dollars on it vrs ten times that
I swear every time I watch one of these videos all I can think about is that these people are on the road with me!!
I would've been better off not realizing this fact even though I've seen some pretty gnarly stuff myself
There are other videos for that. 🤟😁
You really want to worry, think about how the same customers will be maintaining self driving cars in the future.
This is only the people who DO SEEK HELP.
Think about that..
And you just know the really messed up cars are driving fast and tail gating you with some metal on metal brake pads. Lol
It’s unimaginable what people do to their rides and what mechanics find. Literally crazy as hell
Agreed!
It’s even scarier when it’s dump trucks and tractor trailers
I just Love when customers think the shops won't realize they're full of shit
Incompetent, stupid people don't realize that others are not as stupid as they are.
It's funny cause we repair men aren't engineers, were diagnostic detectives who know how to turn wrenches.
Had a customer complain that the gear change was bad,
Rear tyred were fucked and there was hot spots on the tiny bit left of the clutch plate
I saw a rear diff like that in about 75 or 76. Had about 1.3 miles on it. Apparently the guy on the line that installed the cover was pissed about something. He threw a handful of cover bolts in before the cover went on. Real classy.
Damn. I remember once a loooong time ago a mate had a Torana (Australian car) that always had a rattle in the back. One day the car got rear-ended and in fixing the damage, taking off a rear panel there was an empty soda can *inside* the panel. That was no accident either, I bet.
Was it an Italian car? They do that because they're not allowed to strike so when they get pissed they do stuff like drop a wrench in the block...
@@robskyle it was a Plymouth. It wouldn't move at the Melvindale shipping yard. Was towed to the dealership I worked at.
Have to admit though, catastrophic failure makes removing the part much easier :)
Lol
These oil changer guys are so smug but they don’t know any better to record in awkward portrait configuration. 🤦♀️
Yup , saves time on a diagnostic lol..
I find that the best failures are the ones that completely remove the part for you and then dispose of it somewhere along your journey to save you time later!
@@Dmannic9 that’s what we call a win win situation. The part volunteered to resign and now you just bring in the new guy.
That rotor worn on one side looks cool. That would make a great clock.
How did that even happen tho?
This is why I always, ALWAYS. Check to ensure I'm putting the right fluid in the right place.
I've been working on cars since I was 15 and am now almost 62. If I can't do it myself I take it to a shop. I let them know that I was a mechanic and a Mechanic's wife for over 41 years so they know not to try and sell me what I don't need, but if they're honest with me they will get my business and my referrals. So I know what you mean. My current vehicle is a 1997 Chevy suburban with 193,400 miles on it and no rust. I laugh at some of the cars you deal with and others make me cringe. Keep up the great work.
I work on my own cars also. I have an 06 impala work car with 412k on it, still runs strong. I make sure things are fixed when they start to go bad.
So much for state car inspections providing road safety.
Many states (such as the one I live in) do not require inspections. Some of the vehicles I have seen on the road lead me to think there should be.
@@bradswiftfur6924 That explains much.
Insane how these things actually make it into the shop
Thank you GM for providing us with some of the best wtf “customer states” vids..😂
It's amazing these cars were able to be driven to the shop!
This is why there are mandatory vehicle checks...
@@seanryan4131 We live in KY and there are no mandatory vehicle checks.
The cylinder liner going up with the cylinder was the most shocking for me. I have heard of it happening but, I have never actually seen it.
I didn’t even know that was a thing lol.
The Cylinder Head Holds The Liner In Place So If You Remove The Head Then It Will Allow The Cylinder Liner To Lift .
Customer States: Weird shit going on. 😂
Odd that they often blame another shop or a 'friend' who's done the sloppy work!
I love the quick-detach driveshaft mod!
Seeing this, and driving for a living and seeing how badly people drive, it's a wonder how the human race actually hasn't gone extinct yet.
A *lot* of these customer states clips make me super, super, *super* glad I don't live on the east coast, or anywhere that requires salt on the roads.
where's the shop that you get so many bullet ridden vehicles? In the 70's and early 80's I managed a gas station with 3 mechanic bays and never saw a vehicle with bullet holes. (just north of DC)
Customer: "Not my fault", "It's a warranty case"; "Goodwill?"; "Nobody told me", " It's not in the manual", "Everything was fine yesterday"
A lot of these problems comes from, the extent of some people's knowledge of the mechanics of a car is putting in the key and starting it. THEN when they have ruined it by running it into the ground by the lack of maintenance, they state "I heard a noise".
Or worse still they state the vehicle is unreliable.
Most of these clips in these videos are due to piss poor maintenance, if any, but many of these clips are the result of hitting/running over something or vandalism it seems.
the one at 9:34 had a TON of forbidden glitter in it. So much so that it looked like silver paint when the plug was first pulled. Reminded me of the silver paint I used to use on my model cars.
Customer states: the car burns everytime I drive into a garage ...
Tire repair at 8:45- I had tire on a pickup slashed, took 8 bullets in a row to fix it. It was vandalism.
I’m surprised half these cars even make it to the shop and haven’t exploded on the way 😂😂😂
I would love a version of this for us dummies that explains what the car should look like. I know that’s like twice as much work, but this content is appealing to normies
It seems like most people think their suspension is made to last forever lol. I had a shop charge me for a clutch they never put in. Had the car 4 years and the clutch went out 3 months after they “fixed” it and they blamed me for burning it out when I have never burned one up still to this day! My current civic had the original clutch in it from 2000 until last year when I changed it just out of regular maintenance and it still could had lasted longer with 260k miles on it!
Imagine if doctors treated their patients like mechanics treat theirs
Never a dull moment.
In the UK vehicles have to pass an annual roadworthiness test after their third year, if you don’t get a pass your insurance is invalid.
They probably need to do that in America too, a few months ago, I saw a car that probably was rescued from the crush pile with no windows or what UK call a windscreen, it looked like it caught on fire with the exhaust pipe coming out of the bonnet.
Dystopian
Where I live there is road salt and something call snow, no car will be able to pass inspection even government car, plus there so much cat converter thief I doubt any car will pass
nothing a $50 bribe can't take care of
Authoritarianism is great eh??
0h my god. I worked on cars in in SC as a teen and in my early 20s. This is nothing here that surprises me. I love this channel.
Lol, it is sooo the way it was at service stations. They are all gone. It was technical. I’m a software engineer now.
13:10 all this needs is the infamous line "I JUST NEED AN ALIGNMENT"!
Those front wheels have hella camber, everyone in the stance community was taking notes.
The old “had a friend do some work on the Car so you don’t have to admit to the mechanic that you are a complete idiot” trick.
Salesmen all around the world: "That car is in good condition, just make a quick oil change and wash it, new owner is coming to take it home."
Incredible stuff there. I don't understand how people ignore their vehicles issues until it's already a disaster, not to mention unsafe.
Good to see that even today, people will still use the old bailing wire trick to fix their suspension...
After seeing all the rusty junk I’m so thankful I live in Florida and don’t have to deal with salt in the winter.
2:25 now thats what I call the flashing Christmas tree
Unbelievable! Can not believe they drove them in😱😱😱
Some of the suspension and steering and brake issues are unbelievable,
Cars would never get to these extents in the uk the issues would be picked up on during the annual test.
"No, no, it's okay. I've got a friend who does this stuff all the time."
Some of these videos should be required viewing for kids in driver's ed classes.
1:18 That's your thoughts and prayers holding it together.
NEAT!
you know its not their friend, its them
speed bumps was great !
That’s dope! Got in to the best of comp!
12:25 I've ran a transmission pretty dang hot a time or two out of necessity, but I've never seen the cooler fins expand like that.
I'd assume replacing the cooler is only the beginning of the problems with such obvious neglect.
How do these massive single piece diff just crack open like that ? It’s metal ?
It takes some serious neglect for that to happen. The u-joints on the driveshaft keep the driveline forces aligned and if they seize up, all that torque is gonna end up twisting things in a way they were never designed to be twisted. Also the diffs themselves can fail and refuse to turn. Then it's just about the weakest point giving way.
extreme temperature changes can also really fuck up metal structure. i'm imagining that person living in the Upper Midwest (particularly Michigan which has terribly-maintained roads) and then after years of abuse the thing just goes crack!!! in the middle of winter
Best funny videos 😂
Bro some of these cars look like there getting a cyst drained 😂😂
A lot of them look like they’ve been under water for a while! Must be some rough roads to bust up the parts like that! Wow!
2:31 CAN bus is shitting itself
2:04 - song in the background... "ooooo what's the matter with the car I'm driving?"
Well... Where do we begin?
In most states in Australia, all vehicles over 5 years old must have a yearly inspection so they never get as bad as some of these. If they don't pass they don't get registration, no registration is big fines and no insurance. So if a car is registered here, it will be in sfe reasonable condition.
Yes, this is true in most countries, except the almighty USA.
In Germany brand new cars have to be ispected after 3 years and used cars have to get inspected every 2 years. If something isn't right you have 4 weeks to repair it and have to pay just around 20€ for the after-inspection.
If you can't manage to get it done in that time you have to pay another 100€ for a new inspection.
About 10 years ago, New Jersey (USA) eliminated all but emissions checking to see how it would work out. There was very little change in equipment-caused accidents, so now it has become permanent.
Texas still does this. Yearly. There for awhile you could bypass inspection and just buy the sticker(illegal). Now they make the shop connect to your car computer and it up loads to the state tax office. No more cheating
@@rogerwilco2 idk what you are talking about. I live in the US. Every state has their own inspection laws. In Texas a new vehicle is good for 2 years before being required to be inspected and renew the registration, it is then every year after. A used vehicle has to be inspected and registered yearly.
1:52 really shitty of their grandson to rip the cat off for cash, amongst the rest of the damage lol
5:50 Famous Mazda rear strut bracket.
Same part broke twice within 5x years on my car.
Poor bracket design with cheap aluminum material without any surface coating.
I guess we ran out of customers states these are all old
If you bring your car to a shop and all the mechanics are standing around it laughing you know you’re fucked
Oil in the coolant could be a head gasket issue or it could just be a dumb as dirt friend 😂😂
Dank af
as a mechanic all i can say is wow... just wow...and i thought i seen some heavy shit.. but this takes the cake "0o"
I run my shop in Los Angeles and have the utmospt respect for people who work in these rusty ass states.. with that being said, if a customer MENTIONS their rust, they get my usual labor rate. If they DON'T, they're paying extra lol nothing ruins my day more than finding the cancer that is rust when I'm looking at ANY SORT of undercarriage work.
You know it’s bad if you see the mechanic pull out a phone and start recording
This just made me wanna get my diffs checked lmaooo
changing my diff fluid soon too!
@@patrickyoung2151 How about that one who drilled a drainage hole though?
Oil might not be to bad of a coolant. It has a much higher boiling point, so less pressure? Bearings stay lubed? Double bonus. when the head gasket goes no mixing oil and antifreeze.
The coolant pump is not likely to be rated for a liquid as thick as oil so it will probably kill the pump pretty fast
@@joshuakuehn good thing its mixed with coolant so its a bit thinnee👍
That ATF one lol.
I guarantee that engine is squeaky clean on the inside now.
Can nobody replace a tire for a spare any more?
I'm an old time mechanic.. don't know why I'm watching this.
Of all the channels I watch, these videos scare the hell out of me. Someone drove that there???????
Differential, some assembly required. 😂😂😂
12:44 The mileage on the car blowing a crap ton of smoke is 73,666.1 so I would definitely say the devil got hold of that one!!
"Customer states, 'weird shit goin' on'."
Yeah, I'd say the customer has it pretty right
98 grand Cherokee to this day had the best seats.
I truly believe these awesome mechanics should start being paid in gold because the absolute messed up vehicles they fix on a daily basis.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍👍👍👍👍
paid ??
@@Jackthesmilingblack
Fixed it thank you.
Good job on the new episode 😉😎👍
If someone walked up to me and said “I heard a bump on the highway” my reply would be go home and check it, we don’t do bumps at this shop.
Costumer when he/she will see the damage: I think something is brokeee-.. oh.
5:54 i think that ford fiesta mk5 has the same issue with the rear shock absorbers breaking just because it is aluminum
1:50 I guess every ford fiesta is prone to cylinder flooding with coolant
5:50 Bluetooth suspention go brrr.
You mean the push rod is not supposed to be removed through the side of the engine? I thought it was one of those newfangled quick service features.
All Kia's and Hyundai's come with that feature now , didnt ya know?
This guy kept coming back to the dealership for warranty work on his engine and transmission. So we finally decide to send someone in the car with him to see how he drives it. This guy would red line the shit of the car. He would also not let go of the gas pedal when shifting. So the dealership cut him off after that.
I don't have a car. This channel makes me want to fix cars and never own one 😂
customer states: "Somethingswrongwithitman."
I’ve used a bunch of Rotary brand lifts but had no idea they had batteries. Do they all store energy in batteries? Also notice the white Audi R8 in the background!
Its specific only to their dc 24 volt lifts powered with 2 marine batteries. System has 110v plug in charger to keep em topped up.
Are US cars not rust treated during production?
They are. Most of the rusted away chassis videos are on much older vehicles. Most likely from the northern states.
do you not have an inspection every year for your cars to find out if there safe to drive. the uk has a thing called a mot for your car and if it fails the mot its not fit for the road . you have 10 days to fix it and then return to the mot station to get a pass so you drive it the the next year
So...Much...Carnage....
3:24 it's a McCarfe "Caution Contents may be hot!!"
I don’t even know where you’d start with some of these. I’d be tempted to just refuse service altogether
"Weird shit going on" Fair
6:04 Customer after looking at the repair bill: "So this is what you people do? You pour water and place mold inside someone's.... central.... comfert... module to suck more money out of them!".
Man catalytic converter thefts are getting out of hang. Gonna have to do as my buddy did and tack weld barbed wire around his catalytic converter.
Washer Fluid + Oil = Mustard
What kind of car was the burned one. For a just split second, the engine looked like a Boss 429 because of the valve cover, for just a split second.
Interesting that it's about brakes ... because NOBODY can identify my clunk from front brakes and clack from front end! I the customer roll in and state "I have a noise please find it" and I'm told "sorry can't replicate." I drive off and it's right there.
Oh, and shuddering-chugging during harder braking. Was told replace rotors and pads. Did so. Result: shuddering-chugging during harder braking.
