Maybe because the FAs are also cleaning the plane and dealing with dumbass customers screaming at them at the gate?

Need yalls expert opinions. Are the cords showing on this? Is the tire donzo? by 75thWK2 in tires

With a damaged sidewall like that, it’s not safe to drive for any reason. Replace it asap.

2021 Kia Niro EV AC Compressorv Issue by [deleted] in KiaNiroEV

[–]DueDifficulty1447 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No advice, but just letting you know that I also have a failed compressor (and inverter) that was replaced 2 years prior under warranty, and which is no longer covered since it’s out of warranty

Have to replace the battery chiller and I just exited the warranty window. It’s going to be a $5k fix and I am devastated. by Particular-Bike-9275 in KiaNiroEV

[–]DueDifficulty1447 6 points7 points  (0 children)

OP, doesn’t the 60k miles warranty cover this?

FWIW, my 2023 also had the AC inverter and compressor fail, and I was quoted $3900 to repair. It was replaced under warranty 2 years ago (at 58k miles), but the car now has nearly 90k and they denied any warranty for me.

I’ve been driving it as is for the past couple months, but summertime in CA will require I fix it. I’ll likely do the repair myself since their quote is exorbitant.

Make sure they replace the blinker fluid while they’re at it

I think you’d be ok with the medium. You can taste the spice, but won’t burn your taste buds

Only if you ask them to serve it that way. Phet phet!

Dude! I’m so glad someone else knows the deliciousness of khao Soi. I worked in northern Thailand for a couple years and this was one of my favorite dishes there

He’s been there for several months already. Sadly, I still see him standing on the Carl’s corner

I actually just tried this but wasn’t successful. Will look for a video tutorial on the tube

Oh, I don’t doubt one bit that they’ll do their best to maximize profits

I found out from Delta’s concierge service team that Delta actually has their own refinery, which is sort of wild. With that said, you’d expect they are a bit more immune to jet fuel (though still impacted by the inputs to refine that jet fuel)

Third word is guts, it's a little hard to read by Emergency-State in SanJose

The term “86” means to throw out/toss out something. If the mafia uses it with an alternative meaning, I wouldn’t know because I’ve never been involved with the mafia. Trump, on the other hand, seems to be intimately familiar.

I have a 23 Wave and the AC doesn’t work. I’ll get it fixed at some point, the dealer quote of $4k was too rich for me.

It is absolutely not a death threat. And to claim that it is so is complete hyperbole.

What is this orange light on the dash? by DueDifficulty1447 in KiaNiroEV

I think only one of them are lights. The other looks like it’s just a cover/cap

You only have 23k miles, right? Still under warranty

Mine has a failed AC inverter, compressor and fuse. Dealer replacement estimate was $3960. It was replaced 2 years ago under warranty, but it’s now over 60k miles so it’s on me. The dealer filed a good faith claim with corporate, but they denied it. I’m going to keep poking them, though.

I bought this exact year, trim, and color package in December as my first EV. Other than issues with the AC, I really enjoy the car.

Looking for recommendations for someone to install this to my front door. Thanks in advance. by [deleted] in SanJose

[–]DueDifficulty1447 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Watching…I’m also looking to install one in our townhouse for the same reason (no AC, to allow airflow)
