The problem is 99% of the people complaining would never have bought a new one anyway, and Toyota knows that so they have every right to not give two shits about them.

Butbutbut the toojayzee can take 1000 hp reliably and last 500k miles!!!

Other than remote start if offered and remote lock/unlock, what are we losing? Crash detection, it’s available on iPhones now so does the car really need it?

I’m bored with the C8 honestly. It’s too expensive, but enough cheaper than exotics that normal supercar buyers are buying Corvettes now. It’s what Genesis hoped would happen with their sedans. Now you only see Corvettes instead of the occasional Huracan or 488, and every time you think a real exotic is coming along,…

I used to sell for a different manufacturer and had one of my sales bought back too. Car had constant low fluid lights and couldn’t be fixed by our techs (including the ones that were certified on our halo cars so I know they’re good) and even had someone from the mfgr’s engineering department come to look at it.…

I can’t stand the guy, but am I really the only person who sees this as a joke? I got “you should work for me!” joking comments all the time when I had a happy customer selling cars, even though I’d be in no way qualified to work in their field. I’ve told customers kids the same thing when they help talk their parents…

Alfa GTV/Spider.

You’re right about the warranty, I looked it up after the fact. But these are US cars in the US, so that’s where my comment is referring to.

You’re right, they keep the balance of the factory warranty I looked it up as well after the fact. But like I mentioned elsewhere in replies you lose your biggest legal recourse for failure to repair under the warranty so legally it’s a lot less meaningful.

But you’re still with an unrepairable car that, now, you can’t sue the manufacturer for not repairing it! So sure you can send in your car for the same repeated issue it was lemon’ed for over and over, but when it keeps failing there’s nothing you can do about it unless you’re willing to pay your attorney fees.

Did you read the rest of that paragraph?

I know exactly how that works. And both lemon law and voluntary buybacks exist because of an unrepairable car. From the original owner’s perspective other than court it’s pretty much the same thing. From the next owner’s perspective it’s a big difference.

Lemon law buybacks I don’t think have any warranty, they’re exempt from remaining new car warranty usually. And even if there’s a warranty for these being non-lemon law there’s no teeth to it if there’s no real legal recourse. Breach of warranty and MagMoss claims don’t allow you to recover attorney fees so you’d be…

I’m not forcing a public danger onto other road users just to fulfill some tech-bro fantasy. It’s a bit different.

From what I understand it’s the stepover part of the sill that gets so hot, IIRC there was a warning on the Gen2 RT/10 I drove about it. You might not have the actual exit pipe right there but it’ll still burn you, I didn’t drive it long enough to get too hot but I remember after someone test drove it I had to step…

It’s a joke from The Office. She called herself a senator, and she’s actually a state senator which is meaningless.

Well as someone who wants to see autonomous cars gone and the companies pushing them to fail so hard no one dares try again, any resistance against them is heroic in my opinion.

I’ll say some capacitive controls are better than others, Mercedes and Porsche come to mind as better ones since you still have to actually click. But this is exactly why I didn’t get a GTI when I was shopping a couple months ago and went for an “outdated” Giulia instead.

Hey Mass gov, what the actual fuck with the ban in the first place? Have you seen Boston parking? Kei cars should be the norm there, not the exception.

From the article, she’s quoted: “My name is Sen. Justine Wadsack and I’m racing to get home because I have four miles left on my charger before I’m about to go down,” she said.
