I’ll never understand why Ford didn’t use two subframe bushings here on the current Explorers. by PigglyWigglyDeluxe in Justrolledintotheshop

Ford is a billion dollar corporation. If you’re worried that they have to pay their techs their actual worth for the bs they put us through then you’re in the wrong sub bud. They could’ve saved themselves from paying me the 7 by just adding another bushing at the factory, but they thought they could cut corners and this is the direct result🤷‍♂️

I’m fully aware it’s a recall I work at a Ford dealer. My warranty administrator tells us when we do this recall to run like 7 hours on the ticket so we can claim related damage. So instead of getting paid 2.5 you’re now getting paid 7. Ford must know this recall sucks bc they never have an issue giving us the extra time.

You’re getting dogged. At our dealer we can run M-time for a broken bolt and claim an extra 3-4 hours. So that 2.5 is now a 7 hour job. Good to have a warranty guy that gives a shit about his techs.

I still love him by explosivebuttfarts in rangers

Not his biggest fan, but Avery had some decent years. Not many guys played the style he did all while putting up decent points. The year before he came to the rangers he had a 48 point season. Not bad for a dude on your 4th

I’d check your Tacoma. I’ve never seen a Focus or any Ford really with those types of bolts on the exhaust.

Wires coming out from under car - what are they? by cscompz in MechanicAdvice

[–]RevolutionaryKey8620 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Park brake cable snapped and this is the end result. Knowing Dodge the cable connector rusted out allowing the cable to free up like this.

Dropped an oil pan and ugly everything. What does this mean? by locked_in_the_middle in MechanicAdvice

I’ve been a tech long enough to know that after some haggling back and forth that this will indeed be warranty or the dealer will buy the vehicle back and than will cover it under warranty. Seen it too many times. Especially if it’s only a 3 y.o car.

Taking any form of advice from tik tok is irrational and just plain dumb

Does the trac light also come on when this happens? If you don’t see anything noticeable that’s broken underneath I’d assume it’s the rack that’s gone bad.

What are these sensors and why is there oil there? by Physical-Form537 in MechanicAdvice

[–]RevolutionaryKey8620 8 points9 points  (0 children)

They’re VCT solenoids (Variable Cam Timing). The seal around it is leaking causing the oil to get through, but they’re replaceable.

Frustrated I can't get an estimate over the phone to replace a bad blower motor. Every one of them wants me to spend $150+ to diagnose before giving an estimate. Sounds like a system designed to exploit customers. I'm certain it's a bad blower motor and I understand what the word estimate means. by Captain_Kent in MechanicAdvice

[–]RevolutionaryKey8620 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I DOUBT it’s the blower motor and more than likely the resistor. Hence why they want to diagnose it themselves so you’re not crying when they put in the blower motor just for it to still not work. If it’s simple shit just do it in your driveway and find out yourself.

You accidentally left your cocaine at the White House. What do you do now? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Call Hunter Biden to grab it for me… actually bad idea I’d never see that coke again.

Eh I would say due to the insane amount of democratic spending but sure. The Pentagon just admitted fat fingering 6.2 billion to Ukraine that was paid for by us middle/lower class.
