My vehicle needed a bit of work, so I was forced to endure some 2022 ants in order to get back and forth from my repair shop.

1st Driver: 2017 Prius with a clear and obvious brake issue. I guess if he just ignores it, it will fix itself? Unreal...

2nd Driver: 2018 Hyundai SUV which featured 3 warning/repair/maintenance lights. He had the personality of a traffic cone, appeared as if he'd been working for 18 straight hours and was kind enough to blast the "Insane Screaming God Fearing Gospel Rant" channel while occasionally carrying on a surround sound Bluetooth phone conversation with his friend.

3rd Driver: Pulled in to the WAWA parking lot 2 blocks away from my mechanic, then sent the "I've arrived" message followed by a series of phone calls. Fine, it happens.

She then proceed to drive 15 MPH over the speed limit. She realized it and stated "I need to slow down a bit or I'll get mail from Uber about me speedin n shit"

Exact quote.

She then began to tailgate any and all vehicles that were in front of her. Like 4 feet of distance between them.

Only 1 more trip to go. Pray for me as we are living in Mad Max times.

Mass airflow sensor. No big deal, runs better without it.

Dude just clean it.
So easy

My maintenance warning light goes on once my oil life reaches 0%. I admit to sometimes driving around for a couple of days before I get my oil changed, especially if it happens during the weekend.

Getting driven around in a car with bad brakes would make me uneasy to say the least.

Every 5k miles. I just reset it when gets to 0 regardless of the meter miles.

No doubt, we've all been there.

Yeah not worth the trouble.
I just sprayed mine off a few months ago. Thankfully all good.

My Prius had a red triangle and VSC warning light.
Hybrid battery was full green, no leaks, inverter pump all good.

I dropped it off this morning then got a call four hours later. The diagnosis was that the connections to my 12 V battery were loose and the passenger side Headlight ballast might be failing. Cool, I'm out of there for $100 and I can DIY the headlights on my own since they wanted $850 to replace the bulbs and the ballast.

I pay, get in the car, start it up and the same warning lights are still on. SMH
I *****, they pull the car back in and claim a new code was thrown coming from the hybrid battery.

These guys are usually pretty good and they have a great rating on google, 55 years in business so I'm being patient but I find it hard to believe that a new code magically appeared from the time they parked it to the time I started it up. I didn't even put it in gear lol.

Since the battery was green I'm guessing it might be a fuse or 100 amp, etc...

Thank you chef. I feel better about my own driving already.

(Hey, I know where you got the upside ice cream cone photo from)

clear and obvious brake issue

That reminds me: surely some riders probably think I have a brake problem. But I definitely don't. I just use minimal grease on the brake hardware and it rubs on the caliper bracket. I consider noisy brakes a great pedestrian warning system as I'm rolling through parking lots and event pick-up areas. People usually move their asses out of the road when they hear and see my shit box.

Do continue to reveal your "standards"

You are the quarry...

I swear some Pax’s expect a Rolls Royce for that four dollar lift to the Dollar General Store that they add stops to!

Anyhoo, if you feel the car you are riding in is unsafe you have the right to say no and call for another car…

Let me do you one better...

The oil change light in my Acura comes on at "15% oil life remaining."

I have to acknowledge the G.D. thing every time I get in the F*ing car and start the engine. Sometimes that may be for months. I hate the d*mn thing.

My alternative is to reset the oil life thing and write myself a reminder in my calendar to change the oil when I really need to.

Would you believe its a Conspiracy.

Id believe its Bidens fault if you subscribe to the status quo of this forum
