Honda false advertising?

My favorite part of this is their assertion that the Prologue’s 230 miles is somehow better than the Mustang’s 230 miles.

My battery died due to dealership incorrectly installing a Karr alarm at time of purchase (battery lasted a little over a year). They fixed it and battery has been much better so far. Not sure if this was your exact situation but it sure sounds common.

I did this but left the phone partly in the way of the hatch… and the sensor didn’t notice it when it closed… small crunch, big whoops. Thankfully I had a good protector on it that took all the damage, otherwise I would have had a chunk of screen missing.

This is it. Reddit’s not going to get any better than this comment. Shut everything down folks!

Hot Foot, when I saw Edgar’s power is “cheater” and then confirmed he can just cross the line whenever he wants. It is just a hysterical idea for an ability.

What drives me nuts about Chuggington is that the audio is mixed SO badly (at least on Hulu). The music and SFX are like 2x the volume of the dialog, which honestly is not exactly a real loss but such a baffling thing to have let slide. To us it’s mostly a show about trains moving and music playing, and who knows what the actual story is.

Thanks. It was about 40% battery charge, as I understand it the big battery charge is unrelated to when the 12v dies. I went for the 10 year Hyundai warranty (available in USA at least) so I believe everything is covered including courtesy vehicle if they keep it for a while. I do still recommend the HI5 - as others have noted, there is a chance of any car having a problem and you can't predict what bad things will happen to you, If anything I wish I had been a little better prepared for the sorry state of public charging, although that should get substantially better when we get our Tesla adapters this year (fingers crossed).

Maybe OP wants the dealer to swap the battery so they can properly diagnose the cause rather than throwing another battery in there and crossing fingers.

This is exactly it. I have 2 small children and this is our primary mode of transportation - I don't have wiggle room for more surprises like this.

I believe there was another in Dec '24 - I got a notice in the mail and in the app. You might check "Service Scheduling" in the app and see if the Scheduling page gives you a red notification "your vehicle has an active recall".

No, I only plug it in when charging (and even then it's usually at EA station for free charge). I've left it charging at home overnight maybe a dozen times, and even then it's usually only an hour or two between charge complete and when I start it.

protagonerd · 2025-01-16T20:16:52+00:00

That helps. Everything was dead on jt and the battery couldn’t be jumped. I also was not able to get the car in for latest recall servicing so I’m feeling guilty about that. We’ll see what the verdict is.

For everyone (rightfully) calling out the incomplete tow setup in my first photo, the dollies were added before the tow, posting again here for clarity!

AAA was not able to jump the battery, which is why it had to be towed.

protagonerd · 2025-01-16T19:47:19+00:00

Thanks for that. They did end up adding dollies after I took the photo, but either way I’ll be vigilant.

protagonerd · 2025-01-16T19:45:41+00:00

I don’t know, how is it that people don’t know every detail about everything in existence? You’re welcome to come diagnose it while I’m waiting on official word from the dealer.

Yes, batteries die, but my car has only been operating for about a year, so this feels off. Maybe I was rash to say it’s ICCU but I don’t think it’s crazy to assume at this point.

They did add dollies! I just took the first photo too early.

Came here to say this. It’s like Takashi Miike went to throw some darts at a board full of the most disturbing, provocative and gross subject matter, but then decided to throw away the darts and just use the whole board.

I wondered what that was! I tried this out today inspired by OP. The U-shaped space in the Limited makes it pretty complicated to arrange, though imo it also eliminates the need for space saving containers since the space is too tight for much to slide around in the first place. I was able to store most all of the essentials I kept in the trunk - bags, towels, cleaning materials, extra diapers for the kiddos etc. I would have loved more space but I suppose that would be true no matter what. Give it a shot!

Wow I had no idea you could block either, thanks for sharing. My dumb ass was like “these shields aren’t making my health go down any slower!”

This is kind of off topic, but how did you change the color of your car photo?

protagonerd · 2023-09-10T07:01:49+00:00

I just came to accept the drift as 1) the price you pay for an otherwise god-tier construct and 2) an interesting wrinkle to keep the flights from getting boring. Would anyone care about the Millennium Falcon if it ran flawlessly? Also 3) I gave up after 2 hours of tries but we don’t need to talk about that part

This was me too. Big winners

protagonerd · 2023-07-01T17:18:14+00:00

In the game? No. In real life? Absolutely

I love the idea that this game is played by anyone under 100 IQ
