      This is just another case of the government making demands through regulations and mandates that have created cars that are less safe and less reliable due to all the electronics and components that must be built overseas to keep the price down to what the customer demands. The government needs to be forced to prioritize safety over fuel mileage. They could build cars with a lot less options just by making them full framed out of heavier metal . They could even put a roll cage in it much like nascar. If they were built closer to NASCAR specs you could have accidents at 80 mi an hour and likely walk away just like they do in their vehicles over a hundred and twenty miles an hour after hitting a wall. I had a bronco that we used to have to take it through emissions and it would pass with just catalytic converters.All the rest of the stuff had been removed. The EPA and other government entities must be shut down for moving the goalposts every time their goal is achieved. When manufacturers meet the mandates the EPA would be out of a job if they didn't change them. If we want safer and more affordable vehicles we must get rid of the cafe standards.

      True which is causing manufacturers to use tiny engines with turbo chargers to haul 4k+ pound SUV's. Sure they might be more fuel efficient but they won't be able to get up to speed as quickly especially when there is cargo. I thought naturally aspirated engines are better than turbo chargers especially considering that a vehicle with a turbo charger is just another thing that can go wrong and can easily shred your engine when it does.

      Yes, we could have very reliable engines with moderately low emissions but they keep pushing EV based on trends and bad advice from environmental enthusiasts. They are actively trying to push great gas engines that could last well over a decade out of the marketplace. We should strive for reliable efficient engines so we waste less automobiles which would be less pollution overall while being cost effective.

Watched your channel for years and followed your professional advice. Has original exhaust, starter and alternator. All maintenance done at the stealership for the first 16 years that was recommended by GM. Oil changed EVERY 5K.

    Chrysler 300 every light comes on just for fun because the electric issues are so bad. Random lights go on and off, blinker doesn't work when lights are on, but work when lights are off, causing you to have to use hand signals only at night when nobody can see them. Left blinker works intermittently, fog lights dont work regardless of bulbs. Interior shifter lights only come on when you punch it. If you make a left turn with the blinker on, when it rolls back to center and turns the blinker off, your ABS, Traction ETS, and big red BRAKE light comes on. Good times....

    Scotty, I had '92 Chevy S10 that would die at idle; I'd have to feather the throttle, or open up the air cleaner and dump some gas in the throttle body to get it start again. I could bump start it and it would run until it went to idle again. I replaced EVERYTHING I could think of, then admitted defeat and sold it. The guy who bought it off me ended up replacing the distributor cap, and he's still driving it 12 years later...

    I had the brake switch issue happen. It wore a hole in the plug. I took 2 pennies, gorilla glued them together, then gorilla glued them to the plug. Had the car for 5 more years after that and never had another issue.

    Hi Scotty, Another great video! I have an issue with a 1999 Mercury sable wagon. The problem is when going slow and coming to a stop the anti lock braking tries to come on, on dry pavement. But not all the time. You can hear the chatter . This never happens at other time, just when coming to a slow stop. Example, when making a U turn in front of the house. The shops around here do not have a clue. One guy changed the front passenger axle because the tone ring on that side had a crack in it. Did not make a difference. Any clues? THANKS in advance!!

    Bean counters are what killed a lot of national chain restaurants, too. New guy comes in, decides to save three cents per serving by using different beans and the quality goes down. Folks who go to chain places are looking for the same experience every time. Any change is noticed and they [we] stop going.
    BTW, I drive old cars, too.

    I'll say this, it's been 4 years since the shut downs and we still have trouble getting people to work at my plant. In the wake of the shutdowns we had to bring in a temp service that had to start looking outside the country for workers (we are in the US). People from South and Central America as well as Mexico started to become a large part of our workforce. We still have a lot of those temps left, but not quite as much as before. I know for fact at least one other employer in my town had to do something similar, I think they took in refugees but I don't recall from where. They even hung up signs saying "welcome" for the people coming to work for them. I have no doubt a lot of others have this same problem. It could be coincidence that this is how it has been since the shutdowns. I feel like it at least played a role.

I’m sure Toyota doesn’t mind some people boycott the brand because of this so called scandal though, because it filters out the smart customers from the stupid ones that believe the media.

    Scotty what’s a common issue that causes a rattle noise from the engine bay almost like a diesel engine on idle on a Toyota Highlander limited v6? So far all I’ve seen online has been to change the solenoids intake and exhaust. I haven’t changed them since the car started back up after turning my awd system off. I reset the code and it hasn’t come back that was months ago. However that Rattle noise on idle is driving my wife crazy and then she’s driving me crazy about it. Should I be concerned about timing chain guides or something involving the timing chain or should I start with the solenoids? Unless you have some other solution. That’s probably my next step. Any help is welcome thanks in advance.
