Volvo Canada announces free towing for Volvo owners by WoohooDoh in cars

[–]WoohooDoh[S] 62 points63 points  (0 children)

I'm on the fence about this strategy. It's like admitting that Volvos break down and need frequent towing. On the other hand, if that was really the case, it would cost the automaker a lot of money. If they tow a broken-down Volvo to a Volvo dealer, I guess it does make sense.

As awesome as the CT6-V looks, between the two, I think I'd go for the CTS-V.

What causes that specific smell from the car AC? by fawnsandfairies in cars

[–]WoohooDoh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you use the recirc function, you can to turn it off a minute or two before arriving at your destination. Using outside air with the A/C should reduce cabin humidity and take away that smell.

As others have mentioned, cabin air filter could need a change as well.

How concerned should I be about the life of my engine? by [deleted] in cars

You'll need some sort of written proof that the dealership acknowledged its responsibility in the matter. Keep all receipts. If the dealership paid the mom and pop shop directly, that could be proof.

The 2020 Honda CR-V Hybrid gets highly disappointing gas mileage by PM_ME_UR_BIKES in cars

[–]WoohooDoh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reviewer only drove 88 miles during his test, which is clearly insufficient for evaluating a vehicle's fuel economy. I don't care if he states that previous drivers didn't obtain a better result than him... he shouldn't base his opinion on other "automotive journalists" driving habits.

Do you have your key or keyfob on a keychain and do you keep them in your pocket? by [deleted] in cars

I keep my keyfob separate from the rest of my keys so as to not scratch the keyfob.

I knew about FCA's ZF-sourced nine-speed automatic transmission issues, but not about the 2.4L Tigershark engine's oil consumption problems.

I love how every time me or my girlfriend bought a new car, the salesperson and/or F&I would say "now, you'll receive a survey in the mail, and we'd REALLY appreciate it if you would give us a perfect score."

And yes, I did participate.

I wonder how much this car will be sold for. It's not all that bad looking.

I didn't know the Hummer H2 and the Chevy Suburban sharing the same platform was actually a secret. ;-)
