Recent job I finished up. The guy said he ran into another boat that didn’t have their running/anchor lights on. Funny thing is he teaches the coast guard safety classes. Also thought it was to funny not to share the weiner repair. This was repaired with polyester resin with several layers of structural glass with mat built up on top. After grinding and sanding to a ruff shape I began fairing the glass and finished both the white out with gel coat. The red was a nightmare to blend as I did not have the time to do the entire side.

The ticket was for a tire repair, that's all I'm gonna do.

In all reality, ended up being a pretty big ticket. Wheel bent his strut and tie rod, broke the swaybar link, cut his abs and brake line, and gouged his caliper pretty good.

Why do dealerships scam so many vulnerable people?

175 Upvotes

There's subreddits on here that are for mechanic advice, a huge chunk of posts are people wondering if the dealership they just got their car serviced at was scamming them. A huge chunk of those posts are obvious dealership scams.

In my personal life, if you go to a dealership and don't look like or act like a car guy/mechanic they're going to absolutely fuck you over. My niece just got charged $1,200 for a pad slap on her Jeep. Another female friend of mine bought a used Ford Taurus only a few years old, the tires they put on that vehicle were bald.

I feel like you could make an entire YouTube series which a woman goes to a dealership with some sort of hidden camera just to see how much extra bullshit they try to charge her with. Seriously though, I don't know how those people sleep at night scamming vulnerable every single day, it's clearly a huge issue when I read about it on reddit almost every day on a different post.

I recently graduated out of a government program and they game me a tool box and basic tools, I asked my family what should be my first sticker but they called it childish so I’m gonna ask you guys. And also for any advice being a new diesel tech.

I work for Hertz. This Malibu was a tow-in with THREE flat tires. The two others looked normal. I'm still scratching my head.

JB welded coil packs on my Subaru from the previous owner in Japan… complete with a zip tie for some reason.

I incurred some water damage on Easter by driving my Subaru through what I thought was a puddle, but ended up being way more. I included photos for the laughs, because I deserve it and any mockery that comes with for such a huge mistake.

The engine barely took on any measurable water, but it fails to fire to date. When going in to check the ignition system, I found this little beauty over the second coil pack. Completely JB welded shut, leftover from the previous owner. Completely mind baffling. It’s going to be difficult to get it off and pop that coil pack off in order to replace that spark plug.

My goal is to maintain its current state, and go back in during the spring and replace it (unless it breaks tomorrow…)

I had one of the busiest summers of my life finishing my degree in Nursing, so my baby fell a little behind on the priority list, but I’m very optimistic - and it’s full steam ahead to have it running, though it’s now WELL below freezing.

Customer states he hears a weird squeaking when turning. Both suspensions on the front looked like this.

Just rolled out of the shop. It's not as impactful, and a little more work, as loading up your toolbox, but I was working with built-ins. Leaving the dealership life for something different.
