I probably did it

One of my favorite claims from being an auto damage adjuster.

How or why would damage that he did to the car be covered under warranty? It wasn’t Chrysler’s fault that he hit something that made the wheel crack. Sounds like he should have claimed it under insurance...

Burden of proof was one of my favorite things I learned in some of my law classes I took in college, it nearly convinced me to peruse a career in law. Not sure why, but I think it was just nice to understand that there was some level of accountability for the accuser to bring an argument to the table. Probably also

I’d try to explain it to you, but I have a feeling it’ll just make us both frustrated (just like sticking up for the Vic yesterday).

Fun fact nobody will care about: The very first car I ever drove was my Dad’s 1990 Cougar XR-7, which shared the same supercharged 3.8 as the Thunderbird Supercoupe.

You must be from down south. Around here(Connecticut), if it's a $600 toyota, 9 times out of 10 it is rusted to the point of being unsafe.

So what you are saying is that you drove a used car and it didn’t handle like a new car.....

Nope.

The mid-90’s Buick Lesabre.

First gen Buick Park Avenue. Full sized, soft suspension, cushy interior. Basically “nap time with whitewalls”.

Can you tell us which cars are killing everyone? Am I still ok driving my Wrangler with no roof or doors?? :(

Point taken. However outside of honda for fifteen years it went nowhere of significance. And specific to this thread it never was adopted for use on large engines. Thus the GM guy was right.

And how many other manufacturers used cvcc?

This is cool, but let’s not forget that the Honda solution wasn’t exactly what you’d call “elegantly simple.”

Agree on the part that it worked.

So here we are with more technology than ever and more ability to make power with fewer emissions than before, and we’re just done? No more need to improve? Jalopnik had an article here a few months ago about how the EPA regulations have forced technological advancements in powertrains that just weren’t coming along

When are the Germans going to learn that you can’t gas people and keep it secret for more than a few years?

or when he won’t be able to register his car due to not having done the recall.
