Re: Another good tech story

That's almost as bad as an Escort we had a guy bring in for a free brake check...we told him it needed brakes badly....he said he'd wait. He brought it back a couple months later for another frree brake check and we explained to him that we couldn't let him take the car because the front pads were gone & the rotors were down to the fins...He said he was taking it anyway...a few days later we saw it going past on a tow truck...he had rear-ended someone when his brakes failed....he tried to blame it on us


Another good cop story.....

One of the deputies took his car into the shop (where centsless works)and when the mechanic pulled it in for service he noticed that there were a bunch of little holes in the steering wheel where the air bag is. Upon closer inspection, it is a number. they call the guy in charge of the sheriff's department motor pool and they discover it is the cop's badge #...he got bored and sat with his badge's pin and poked the number in because he was bored. They explained that he had damaged the airbag and it would most likely not work properly if deployed (yes the holes were that deep)...they made the deputy pay for it out of his pocket...
