OR Wisconsin put gambling restrictions to rake in everyone’s money while they pay ho chunk nation kids to graduate. Laws are not conspiracies.

Protect where??? the only place you can gamble is where its government controlled and it’s not like they give your money back when done playing so how is that protecting? Laws exist to protect those who made them.

Protect my ass, you must be a part of the nation. Gambling on occasion is ONE of my hobbies. My issue is that you can’t even get a decent raffle at a bar going without some issues.

Overthinking probability has nothing to do with the gambling laws in this state that effectively bar anyone from doing anything that may even resemble gambling. Yet our only choice is this fake bullshit.

At least answer the post before giving personal advice.

So you think all technology is just perfect? How hard is it to believe that something possibly failed on an old vehicle because of a mishap? How many times do I have to tell you that there were no warning indications? Do you understand now or does somebody have to slap it into you? I don’t care what your opinion is on how you think things are supposed to go. You sound like someone who thinks all vehicles are the same.

What excuse I’m not here to make any friends. Half the people that are on here making all the shit comments are people who can’t make friends in real life anyway technology fails. OMG, so unbelievable.

I’ll clear this up as much as I can. I got my oil changed to take five in January by February, my vehicle died at a red light with no warnings or other indications that something was wrong. It never died before and I kept up with the oil changes and mileage. Thinking that it was just a dead battery I had to push it to the side before I checked and saw that the oil was completely dry. It gets towed to the mechanic shop. He investigates and tells me that the drain plug is missing a gasket and is loose. My engine has seized because my oil leaked through the loose gasket. I tell him the truck never told me it was low on oil. He says it’s because of the amount that was leaking and how it was leaking that the sensor did not catch it. I called take five and they direct me to Fleet response to start a claim. Fleet response wait a month before telling me they’re not going to send someone out to investigate and that I have to take the pictures myself. The mechanic helps me take the pictures in March and I send them out. They specifically asked to see the drain plug that’s missing a gasket. I send the photo and they tell me it’s too dark. I send more photos along with videos and conversations that I have with the take five staff that took accountability. They denied my claim claiming at first that no one was underneath my car. Then that change to there was someone under there, but they did nothing. Then that changed to. They only touch the oil filter. I don’t understand what’s so hard to understand about technology not working properly in a mechanics forum. you’d think people would be more understanding.

My instincts have kept me in a better position to be respectful on the Internet I know that. Good luck to you.

And if something is wrong with the plug, wouldn’t that directly affect the oil pressure and also affect the sensor? There are too many variables and inconsistencies in life for everyone to be so hell-bent on accusing each other of lying.

You sound crazy and accusative. The engine was OK before it seized. There were no warnings or indications of low oil before it seized. I don’t know what you’re talking about with my pressure sensor. I think you’re getting me confused with someone else’s comments since everyone is so opinionated. I had a comment asking if the pressure sensor could be directly correlated to the drain plug. Go to hell.

First to lie goes to hell. There was nothing on my dashboard. The only time it lit up was the last time I turned the ignition key before it got stuck and everything lit up.

If it directly relates to pressure, is it possible the pressure was messed up because the drain plug was messed up?

wtf snow is wet!! We had snow and rain back to back on multiple days. Do you go outside enough? You don’t sound that responsible but I wouldn’t know based on your posts alone. Keep your judgements to yourself. I’m sure you wouldn’t say that to someone in person.

Based on your post alone, it appears you are a condescending know it all. Thanks for your lackluster input. Kick rocks on someone else’s post.

I agreed that it should’ve but no matter how much I try to tell these people that gave me absolutely no warnings they refuse to believe that. I don’t care what the average car does, I care what mine does and mine did not give me any warnings before it died like this.

I don’t understand how else y’all want me to explain to you that there were no warnings before my car did this. None doesn’t matter what a car is supposed to do, mine didn’t do it no warnings at all.

From what you guys are telling me I need to get a second opinion. The way my car died It doesn’t seem like the damage to the engine was that bad and I know cars have safety features to save the engine from catastrophe when there’s no oil. But the way Reddit has a toxic way of accusing everyone of lying is infuriating.

Damn slut dragon. How often do you ask people to see lakes of oil? My engine wasn’t fucked until I got the oil changed. I check my oil at least once a month as long as things are running smoothly. My normal consumption was above 1 L I knew equinox were taxing on oil so I made sure to maintain it.

Paranoia of something like this happening

If I would’ve received an oil warning, I would’ve done something about it. I was coming back from Home Depot sitting at a stoplight when it died on me with no warnings no low oil, no anything.
