Speaker 5: and chime in with anything you want.
Speaker 1: Also is Major Mark Major? Okay, guys, Major Mark Major.
Speaker 1: Are you there?
Speaker 5: He's he's going to be in and out today, he
Speaker 5: told me so. He's at our satellite studio.
Speaker 1: Justin. What's going on?
Speaker 5: I see that you have had an encounter with a
Speaker 5: company that we've encountered in the past, and I want
Speaker 5: to explain a few things about this company and then
Speaker 5: you can tell me your problem. The company is called
Speaker 5: park it Right. I believe Is that right?
Speaker 1: Is that yeah? Park it Right?
Speaker 5: And they contract with apartment buildings and businesses. And here's
Speaker 5: what they say, we will manage your parking. I have
Speaker 5: no problem with that. They also say we're going to
Speaker 5: boot people who park illegally, so meaning on private property,
Speaker 5: they put up a sign they're supposed to So if
Speaker 5: you park where you're not supposed to park, they boot it.
Speaker 1: And then for you to.
Speaker 5: Get your car moving again, you got to pay to
Speaker 5: get the code to unlock the boot.
Speaker 1: Now, one time Mark and.
Speaker 5: I went out on a case where a woman parked
Speaker 5: and she was legally parked. There was nothing wrong with her,
Speaker 5: she was parked, and park it Right booted her, and
Speaker 5: we took it and got it removed on our own
Speaker 5: because we towed the car into a shop, removed the boot,
Speaker 5: and then sent the boot over to their door because
Speaker 5: we believed what they did was wrong.
Speaker 1: There's nothing wrong with.
Speaker 5: What park it Right does as far as a contract
Speaker 5: with an apartment house and making their services available. The
Speaker 5: problem in the past I've had with park it Right
Speaker 5: is that they don't adequately put signs up to warn people,
Speaker 5: and they were cryptic at best. So now I'm going
Speaker 5: to shut up and tell me your problem, sir. What
Speaker 5: is going on with park it Right?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 9: So I got home went Tuesday from work. There was
Speaker 9: a a.
Speaker 10: Worker was in our house cleaning the air ducts, so
Speaker 10: it was parked in our second parking.
Speaker 3: Spot where I usually park. So I parked in the
Speaker 3: visitors spot. Was a couple of hours, I kind of
Speaker 3: didn't forgot about it. But I'm a legal resident and
Speaker 3: I have a parking permit for this lot.
Speaker 1: So I go out.
Speaker 3: I'm going to move my car back to my spot.
Speaker 3: After the worker got through with the cleaning, met events
Speaker 3: and I see there's a boot on my car.
Speaker 9: So I stand the thing.
Speaker 10: And they wanted three hundred and eighty dollars for me
Speaker 10: to remove the boot on my car.
Speaker 9: And then for me to bring it back to them.
Speaker 9: So right, I email, go ahead.
Speaker 1: Go ahead.
Speaker 5: No, no, I I know that's how they work. But
Speaker 5: here's what I want to know. What was the reason
Speaker 5: for doing that to you?
Speaker 3: I guess because I was parked in a spot labeled
Speaker 3: our visitors.
Speaker 9: I mean, I'm not a visitor.
Speaker 5: Okay, I no, I understand, but justin what are the rules?
Speaker 5: Are there any signs that say visitors passes necessary?
Speaker 1: Or like?
Speaker 5: There has to be a warning. They can't just spring
Speaker 5: this on you. So was there any warning? What? And
Speaker 5: don't don't exaggerate. Please tell me if there are any
Speaker 5: signs whatsoever?
Speaker 10: There are there is, I think one small sign in
Speaker 10: a small portion of the lot labeled visitors.
Speaker 1: But what does it say?
Speaker 11: It says visitors.
Speaker 3: Must register and then it gives you a QR code
Speaker 3: to scan and.
Speaker 5: Okay, okay, okay, what does it say will happen. Hold on,
Speaker 5: it says visitors must register. What does it say will
Speaker 5: happen if you don't register? Does it say a subject
Speaker 5: to booting? I don't believe it's I know you took
Speaker 5: I know you took a picture of the sign, didn't you.
Speaker 1: You took a picture of the sign, didn't you?
Speaker 12: I gotta pull it up here.
Speaker 1: I want you to read that sign to me.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Now, did you end up getting your car or not?
Speaker 3: I I came out in the morning after I emailed them,
Speaker 3: told them I'm a resident.
Speaker 9: I was parked there for an hour or two and
Speaker 9: I came out in the morning and mine was gone.
Speaker 3: There was a car next to me as well that
Speaker 3: was also not booted anymore. So I figured they came,
Speaker 3: realized they're mistake, and took it off.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well what happened?
Speaker 5: Then?
Speaker 1: Keep going? This is interesting.
Speaker 3: Then I get a message last night at midnight saying
Speaker 3: that I removed it without payment, that our parking permits
Speaker 3: to be parked in our parking lot have better evoked.
Speaker 3: Our cars will be subject to toe anytime that they're
Speaker 3: seeing they say criminal charges us.
Speaker 5: Hey, Justin, I'll justin first of all. First of all,
Speaker 5: Justin they can't bring criminal charges. If I have my
Speaker 5: car booted, I can take it off. It's a civil matter.
Speaker 5: There's no crime here. I mean, if some jerk's gonna
Speaker 5: come up and boot my car, I can cut it off.
Speaker 5: But justin between you and me and the fence post, bro,
Speaker 5: did you take it off?
Speaker 1: How did it come off? Come on? Be honest.
Speaker 9: I did not take it off. I assume that maybe.
Speaker 3: I assume they realized their error and came back in
Speaker 3: the night and took it off.
Speaker 5: Okay, So here's what I want to ask you. I
Speaker 5: want to ask a simple question. Now they say we're
Speaker 5: flagging you and we're revoking your parking did you check
Speaker 5: with your management company? Has your parking privileges been revoked?
Speaker 9: I put in a call to the HOA. I haven't
Speaker 9: received any contact back yet.
Speaker 1: Well, is there a management Is there an office there?
Speaker 9: No, we don't have an office, it's just an HOA.
Speaker 1: Well do you own or do you rent?
Speaker 9: I am the person that owns the condo.
Speaker 5: Okay, Well, we have to figure out if your parking
Speaker 5: registration really has been revoked, because I don't think it has,
Speaker 5: and I don't think it should be. You have parking
Speaker 5: spaces and they're still open to you, right you pay
Speaker 5: for them, right, Yes.
Speaker 9: They're still open.
Speaker 3: I came outside night and there's two big bright stickers
Speaker 3: on my car calling me a criminal, saying that I
Speaker 3: don't follow the rules. There's one on mynd.
Speaker 1: You know what.
Speaker 5: This guy's a nut. No, I'm telling you this guy,
Speaker 5: this guy is a nut. Market right sucks. This guy.
Speaker 5: This guy is a total nut. He is He's a
Speaker 5: total nut. And he's like he has a bit. Don't
Speaker 5: worry about it, just don't you know what. I don't
Speaker 5: think they can do anything either. I would take pictures
Speaker 5: of as many signs as you can get him to me.

Speaker 5: worth what they're worth, you know, tell me, tell me
Speaker 5: about it isn't in really good condition?
Speaker 19: Yes?
Speaker 11: It was in real good condition, because I don't know
Speaker 11: if you remember, for Tom, when I first when I
Speaker 11: purchased it, I purchased it from uh uh oh man

Speaker 18: on it, and I spoke to the gal there and
Speaker 18: we called on conference call and they made claim that
Speaker 18: they didn't have the information. And this lady looks at
Speaker 18: her record and she's like, at such and such time,
Speaker 18: I sent it to so and so on and she
Speaker 18: had all the records.
Speaker 5: Do me a favor, Do me a favor, Anthony. Here's
Speaker 5: what I want to know. What specific issue are we
Speaker 5: dealing with right now? Is there a repair you can't
Speaker 5: get done or you can't get a yay or an
Speaker 5: a or tell me what's going on right now?
Speaker 18: Okay, So we had to dwindle it down. There's an
Speaker 18: oil pan that needs re replaced. The contract says that
Speaker 18: the oil pan is covered under the coverage, and we
Speaker 18: three submitted the Why would.
Speaker 5: An oil pan need to be replaced? It sounds was
Speaker 5: it damaged?
Speaker 18: Not not to my knowledge, but according to land.
Speaker 5: Because usually usually correct me if I'm wrong, Kevin.
Speaker 1: Oil pans don't get much, but they don't wear out.
Speaker 6: He's probably referring to the gasket or something is leaking,
Speaker 6: so it needs.
Speaker 1: To be reset or something.
Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, because if it was damaged, obviously they'll never
Speaker 5: come out if it hits all right, so keep going here,
Speaker 5: So so go ahead.
Speaker 18: So we contact or land Rover was contacted and land
Speaker 18: Rover said he had to replace and here's the amount.
Speaker 18: So they sent over. They submitted a proposal over to
Speaker 18: ox car Care. They said they have five days to
Speaker 18: look at it, and this is the second time that
Speaker 18: they've looked at it. And I called them. Then they
Speaker 18: didn't have it. They didn't have the document. Then they
Speaker 18: said that they were shorthanded, and finally I got in
Speaker 18: touch with the lady though.
Speaker 1: So what do they just keep putting you off?
Speaker 13: Yeah, so they had five days. Yesterday was the fifth
Speaker 13: day and they escalated it. They're supposed to handle it today.
Speaker 13: But even when I have called them, we keep getting
Speaker 13: the same lip service. They keep like pushing it back
Speaker 13: like a week.
Speaker 1: What should he do, keV? Kevin?
Speaker 6: Is the shop helping it all? Try to communicate or
Speaker 6: are they kind of done with it?
Speaker 18: No, they are, but they don't answer to the shop.
Speaker 18: That's why I got involved.
Speaker 6: No, it's they could be a challenge.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, so what do you do, keV? I mean, really,
Speaker 1: this sucks. This really sucks. Yeah.
Speaker 6: I've never dealt with them specifically, but we've never gone
Speaker 6: that far. Usually we'll send emails. They can take thirty
Speaker 6: six hours or something. Answer you think, have.
Speaker 5: We ever had luck getting through these people? I mean,
Speaker 5: they're just going to take our call and put it
Speaker 5: on hold too, probably, I don't know.
Speaker 1: Yes, you know what I will.
Speaker 18: They have no manager in the entire facility to help you,
Speaker 18: and you can tell you can hear in the background.
Speaker 18: It's really loud and it's a call center, and you
Speaker 18: you have a hard time hearing them, and eventually they
Speaker 18: just put you on hold or they hang out. And
Speaker 18: this has been the car's been in the car has
Speaker 18: been there about nine weeks. Nine weeks.
Speaker 5: Oh my god, nine weeks. This is ridiculous. Okay, we
Speaker 5: need to get you. I'm gonna put Deputy D on it.
Speaker 5: I want Deputy D to contact you and then him
Speaker 5: to contact them.
Speaker 1: He has a pretty good way.
Speaker 5: I mean, all my deputies have their own ways of
Speaker 5: doing things, but I think this one is.
Speaker 1: Suited for him. So let's do that.
Speaker 5: You hold on and you'll be hearing from D Deputy
Speaker 5: D or Dimitri shortly. Okay, and let's just see if
Speaker 5: we can rattle the cage over there. I can't believe it.
Speaker 5: They have had your car. You're wait, but you can
Speaker 5: still drive this car, right, Okay.
Speaker 1: I don't know why you'd be able to drive it.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I just keep boiling it. Yeah, I wouldn't because
Speaker 6: he came in for change. He didn't even come in.
Speaker 1: Did he say none weeks?
Speaker 6: He did say nine weeks?
Speaker 1: Yeah, are you?
Speaker 6: And yeah, that's I would be driving while I'm fighting
Speaker 6: these guys. But he's he's in this fifth day of
Speaker 6: his windows, so that's what he was.
Speaker 1: So I'm going to give this the deputy D.
Speaker 5: Then Deputy D, I don't I don't blame this guy
Speaker 5: for being frustrated. My god, I'd be frustrated too. All right,
Speaker 5: So wait, Jay has a comment on the price of
Speaker 5: the stolen excuse me, Channon rod Is, Oh, there he
Speaker 5: goes Rod. Okay, let me go to Rod. First, Rod
Speaker 5: at JFR Cars, Rod, where do you go to value cars?
Speaker 5: Because this is an age old problem. People get their
Speaker 5: car stolen or totaled and they want to make sure
Speaker 5: they get the right price.
Speaker 1: Where do you go? What do you like to use?
Speaker 23: I use a couple of websites that can value the car.
Speaker 24: I can go to you know, we.
Speaker 23: Have a system that will tell you exactly how many
Speaker 23: cars are out there, what's your competition, and where and
Speaker 23: and and put a price on it from high to low,
Speaker 23: and how long they've been on the market.
Speaker 6: So that's what I use to get it.
Speaker 1: It's a it's a.
Speaker 23: It's a dealer's device or website, it's the auto and
Speaker 23: it will tell you exactly.
Speaker 5: Now for a consumer, Rodney, maybe you think I'm crazy,
Speaker 5: But for a consumer, because it's such.
Speaker 1: A large, large, large.
Speaker 5: Amount of data to draw from cars, dot Com does
Speaker 5: a fabulous job because what they do is they look
Speaker 5: at the real market and what cars are selling for there,
Speaker 5: and then they have what's called a deal gauge. So
Speaker 5: if you put in a make out all you're looking for,
Speaker 5: it's set and then see what the price is tells
Speaker 5: you if it's a good or bad deal or an
Speaker 5: outstanding deal. Have you ever heard of cars dot com?
Speaker 23: Yeah, of course, and and and you know, we found
Speaker 23: that even car Guru is a little bit better system
Speaker 23: because it tells you how long it's been out there
Speaker 23: on the so it gives you a little bit more leverage. Okay,
Speaker 23: between that Auto Trader, cars dot Com and car Guru,
Speaker 23: that's a great piece of be able to judge where
Speaker 23: the market is on the car and when you're going
Speaker 23: out there.
Speaker 6: I'm grateful to the public.
Speaker 1: And all right, so thank you very much.
Speaker 5: And i want to mention that I've been working with
Speaker 5: Jfrcars now because I've been toying with the idea of

Speaker 25: There's Yukon XL which is the base model in THESL two,
Speaker 25: which is a big upgrade.
Speaker 1: What did you think about What did you think about it?
Speaker 1: What is it worth?
Speaker 5: Do you think he wanted five grand for it? What
Speaker 5: do you think is worth?
Speaker 25: Conditioned? Is everything at Denale is never going to be cheap.
Speaker 25: It's the most expensive one. They have tons of upgrades.
Speaker 25: He's probably right in the ballpark. It's not even almost
Speaker 25: low because if it's in great shape, that's what a
Speaker 25: person looks at when they look at a car. The
Speaker 25: mile edge doesn't freak it.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but it's got two hundred and forty thousand miles
Speaker 5: on it, Brother, two hundred and forty thousand miles.
Speaker 25: If it's shiny and pretty. People don't think things out clearly,
Speaker 25: He's probably right in the ballpark because he was a
Speaker 25: really expensive.
Speaker 6: Vehicle that was He's right.
Speaker 1: Do they still make him?
Speaker 24: Yeah?
Speaker 25: They still do.
Speaker 1: Are they worth it?
Speaker 5: Jay J?

Speaker 19: He's calling that dealership in the other studio, Tom.
Speaker 1: Okay, so he's doing it right. Now what are you
Speaker 1: working on, bo.
Speaker 8: I'm just working on this other sewer main sewer line leak, Barbara,
Speaker 8: that called.
Speaker 6: Any other day, But I'm gonna be a little cautious.
Speaker 19: I want things to dry out good before I have
Speaker 19: to go look at it.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, and Deputy d what are you working on?
Speaker 5: Bro?
Speaker 27: Well, Tom, I think we have a pretty interesting update
Speaker 27: from Uncle Kevin over here. Because you may recalled it
Speaker 27: a twenty fourth a lady by the name of Alice
Speaker 27: called in on behalf of her son Armando, who has
Speaker 27: a twenty twelve unc Arcadia with a leaky rear main
Speaker 27: seal that you and I had the show here.
Speaker 1: So here's was the deal.
Speaker 5: He had an engine done by the shop and now
Speaker 5: the rear main seal is leaking. The shop says, that's
Speaker 5: not part of the engine rebuild, and it.
Speaker 27: Was a used engine. They put in a used rebuild rebuild.
Speaker 27: So interesting.
Speaker 1: Manufacturing. No, though she never said it, she knew it
Speaker 1: was a reman.
Speaker 6: Yeah it was.
Speaker 1: That's why we thought it should have a new main seal.
Speaker 1: Let's get right to it.
Speaker 5: A rear main seal is it part of the engine
Speaker 5: or the transmission engine?
Speaker 6: It is attached to the engine.
Speaker 5: Okay, when you do an engine or buy a rebuilt
Speaker 5: or a remand engine, yes do should you get a
Speaker 5: new real main.
Speaker 6: Seal comes installed in the reman engine?
Speaker 1: So what did you find when you looked at that?
Speaker 1: They said it wasn't part little more.
Speaker 6: You know, he was told it wasn't covered by warranted
Speaker 6: so he took it somewhere else to get the remain
Speaker 6: done because they weren't going to honor the warranty on
Speaker 6: another leak until he fixed that, and back and forth.
Speaker 6: The whole thing I think is a mess. They claim
Speaker 6: it's a three year, thirty six thousand mile warranty. He
Speaker 6: has two years and twenty thousand miles on the car,
Speaker 6: so I'm not sure why they're not honoring a warranty.
Speaker 6: That is more to the point to me. He's got
Speaker 6: a lot of issues. He's got a head gasket leak.
Speaker 6: Now he's got some other problem.
Speaker 1: But the real issue was the warrants. You should cover it.
Speaker 6: Warrant, you should have covered it the first time. I
Speaker 6: asked Armando to please call and see where you got
Speaker 6: the engine from and I will deal with the.
Speaker 1: Okay, direction, so good. So that's in the works right now.
Speaker 6: Hopefully they're not forthcoming. That's to where they got the motor.
Speaker 6: You got something. No.
Speaker 27: I think that's a really great discovery on your part
Speaker 27: to have gone through that paperwork.
Speaker 20: But I do have one quick question.
Speaker 27: According to the original shop that installed this freemanned engine,
Speaker 27: they said, the rearmain seal, and I'm paraphrasing, wasn't.
Speaker 20: In the engine. It's outside of the engine, some intermediary like.
Speaker 1: Some kind of a kind of a unit that goes
Speaker 1: between the transmission.
Speaker 6: It's housing that's bolted to the by.
Speaker 1: It's bolted to the main part of the engine to
Speaker 1: the engine.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it comes with the all.
Speaker 5: Right, three oh three, seven to one to three talks. Well,
Speaker 5: then are they kind of universal in a way? Then
Speaker 5: the rear main seal on an engine is meant for
Speaker 5: any kind of transmission to marry up to it.
Speaker 6: Well, yeah, it's whatever it is, you know word it
Speaker 6: happens to be. So it never ever put a reman
Speaker 6: engine in without a remain seal. That's okay, it's great.
Speaker 5: Can you theoretically take an engine that has the rearmain
Speaker 5: seal and the and the matchup for one transmission and
Speaker 5: get another one for another transmission.
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, you can enterchange.
Speaker 6: It really has nothing to do with the transmission. The
Speaker 6: roommates seal. Oh, it does the actual rear seal of
Speaker 6: the engine period. But it helps nothing to do with.
Speaker 1: But doesn't a chef go through it?
Speaker 6: No?
Speaker 1: Oh it doesn't.
Speaker 6: No, because the torque verter will bolt.
Speaker 5: Okay, I have a bad visual folks, it's hard to visualize,
Speaker 5: so we won't get it to you. So, but what
Speaker 5: he's saying is this part of the engine period.
Speaker 6: I could have been warrantyed. Thank in my opinion.
Speaker 27: All right, so I hear you say that you might
Speaker 27: be able to provide the warranty service.
Speaker 6: Depending on who we bought the engine from. I can
Speaker 6: file acclaim with them. Yeah, to move further.
Speaker 1: All they want to do is that all shops.
Speaker 5: I mean, manufacturers want to do of engines that someone's
Speaker 5: not screwing them, you know. And Okay, so Cameron, this
Speaker 5: this problem bothered me. You're a veteran, by the way,
Speaker 5: thank you for your service.
Speaker 1: Where did you serve? Cameron?
Speaker 21: I was in Fortwood, Texas.
Speaker 5: And you got out and moved to Colorado. What brings
Speaker 5: you to Colorado?
Speaker 4: Well?
Speaker 21: I grew up here and I'm also going to medical
Speaker 21: sales college here coming up this summer.
Speaker 1: Good.
Speaker 5: So, Cameron, you got a new apartment, you didn't have
Speaker 5: your tags yet, and your cars were booted, and you're
Speaker 5: telling me they don't see that you were not violating parking.
Speaker 1: What do they say about it?
Speaker 21: Well, so I had my tags, They're just Texas tags.
Speaker 21: And so when I went in to ask.
Speaker 1: About no, no no, I mean no no no.
Speaker 5: I mean I mean why did they toe you or
Speaker 5: or boot you? I mean, what was the reason for
Speaker 5: booting you?
Speaker 1: Did they think you weren't part of that complex?
Speaker 21: Yes, because we have a parking pass sticker that they
Speaker 21: were so supposed to give us.
Speaker 5: Okay, got it. Now you didn't have the sticker, so
Speaker 5: they booted you. And who did the apartment managers say?
Speaker 5: They would not undo it?
Speaker 21: So I talked to the leasing lady.
Speaker 24: She said she wouldn't do it.
Speaker 21: And when she said that, I asked to talk to
Speaker 21: the manager. And then I waited for about thirty minutes
Speaker 21: for the manager and he came out of his office,
Speaker 21: said he was really busy and too email him.
Speaker 5: Okay, this sucks, this really sucks, Kaschina. I want to
Speaker 5: try to get him on the air now. I want
Speaker 5: to see if they'll come on and talk about how
Speaker 5: they do a veteran this way especially. Let me ask
Speaker 5: you this, Cameron, at the time your cars were booted,
Speaker 5: you legally had signed You had already signed a lease, correct,
Speaker 5: and they don't see the mistake. Did you've end up
Speaker 5: paying for it? Did you end up paying for it?
Speaker 21: I have not yet because it happened this morning.
Speaker 18: So they're still on there.
Speaker 21: I'm trying to get.
Speaker 5: All right, kitchina. We got to get into high gear.
Speaker 5: Hang on camera, and this sucks.
Speaker 1: Man. This should not be happening.

Speaker 5: I think he should go down and talk to them
Speaker 5: in a nice way and just say, look, here's a soldier.
Speaker 5: He had a lease and you guys, and he tried
Speaker 5: to apply for a parking pass. So it was a mistake,
Speaker 5: you know, Yeah, it might have been technically wrong. He
Speaker 5: didn't have a pass displayed, but you didn't issue one
Speaker 5: to him.
Speaker 1: Listen with you. This is bull crap and park it right?
Speaker 5: Come on, man, how how much do they want Cameron
Speaker 5: for these two?
Speaker 21: Three dollars.
Speaker 1: For both or for one.
Speaker 6: For both? All right?
Speaker 1: Listen man.
Speaker 5: All I say. All I say is we're going to
Speaker 5: do what we can to help you. We're three seven
Speaker 5: one three five five Shannon? Do I owe you the
Speaker 5: first break? Did I go over? Okay?
Speaker 1: Good? Okay, I didn't know I took a break. Good, Okay.
Speaker 5: Let's go to Ava, Ava, Hi, Tom.
Speaker 1: Ava.
Speaker 5: This was about This was about an engine replacement.
Speaker 12: Wasn't it replacement?
Speaker 19: Yeah?
Speaker 14: It was Eagle Automotive and Transmission and Progress.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm looking for it here, uh Sorrento?
Speaker 1: Wasn't it? Okay?
Speaker 5: And you brought it to Eagle Transmission and Diesel and
Speaker 5: Parker for a used engine you paid fifty nine hundred bucks.
Speaker 5: Now you're having trouble with it. It needs a timing chain,
Speaker 5: chain and camshaft. Well, Kevin, why would it need that
Speaker 5: if it's a you know, you paid fifty nine hundred
Speaker 5: for a rebuilt No, for a used engine? So did
Speaker 5: they The last time we checked Dollar was working on this,
Speaker 5: didn't they say they were going? Deputy Dollar didn't they
Speaker 5: say they were going to fix it for you.
Speaker 14: Well, they offered to reduce the price to fix it
Speaker 14: then I think it was thirty three hundred down to
Speaker 14: about But wait.
Speaker 5: A minute, wait a minute, when did they do when
Speaker 5: did they do this? Used engine? I guess they can't
Speaker 5: warrant you used engine. It's not their fault.
Speaker 6: No, you go, we get twelve to twelve mints.
Speaker 14: Well okay, hold on, go ahead, okay, So your deputy
Speaker 14: basically said you need to bite the bullet and pay
Speaker 14: the additional note to have this engine. So that one
Speaker 14: that I felt that was grossly unfair. And that's what
Speaker 14: I'm calling back because I want your listeners to know
Speaker 14: that if they feel that they have been ripped off,
Speaker 14: don't give up. I took this to Visa International, and
Speaker 14: I did have to pay for a two additional diagnostic reports.
Speaker 14: I got one from Kia Arapaho the dealer and one
Speaker 14: from another local Kia specialist, and I proved that EGO
Speaker 14: transmission wide. They told me I needed a time.
Speaker 12: Will take Wait, you went.
Speaker 22: And did all this on your own?
Speaker 14: You bet you?
Speaker 1: You get the dinner. Now let me ask you something
Speaker 1: ab But what's the end result?
Speaker 14: My bank, Decent International, agreed with me. They felt that
Speaker 14: I was done, I was treated fraudulently, and they back
Speaker 14: every penny. Yeah, isn't it great?
Speaker 7: Wow?
Speaker 1: Now hold on, Here's what I want to tell you.
Speaker 5: I want to give you a little league note here,
Speaker 5: not legal advice, but a legal note. When the credit
Speaker 5: card comes nothing more than a platform for payment. If
Speaker 5: that credit card company says we don't think AVA should
Speaker 5: have paid that bill and they give your money back,
Speaker 5: that bill is still a bill, and that that mechanic,
Speaker 5: that shop can still come after you for payment. They
Speaker 5: just can't get the payment through visa. Do you understand that?
Speaker 14: I understand that. But I feel perfectly confident with the
Speaker 14: diagnosi reports that I have from the realership that I
Speaker 14: will be good. So I'm prepared to go there if
Speaker 14: maybe And one last point to you, good Ava.
Speaker 1: You sound like a fighter. I like it.
Speaker 5: Here's what I want to know though, this is very
Speaker 5: important that we find this out.
Speaker 1: What was it that went wrong with the engine.
Speaker 14: Well, it's my belief that the engine was a bad
Speaker 14: engine to begin and to begin with, and then on
Speaker 14: top of it.
Speaker 22: Did they warranty the engine?
Speaker 19: No?
Speaker 16: They did not.
Speaker 14: He sold me a warranty that he told me was
Speaker 14: included with the engine replacement, and I discussed when I
Speaker 14: looked at my and then it turns out it was
Speaker 14: because it's warranty. Because number one, it was substandard, it
Speaker 14: didn't pay for the waybor number two, he refused to
Speaker 14: give me a copy of the warranty, and he said
Speaker 14: that the additional work he had done on the engine.
Speaker 5: Had Why did they want but well, hold on, though,
Speaker 5: here's a logical question. Here's a logical question. Eva, you
Speaker 5: bought a car. Excuse me, you bought an engine. You
Speaker 5: paid them, they gave you a warrant, and then they
Speaker 5: wouldn't fix it. What reason did they give that you
Speaker 5: needed to pay for it?
Speaker 14: Well, they said that the additional work to this engine
Speaker 14: that danstalled would exceed. Oh, the additional work would exceed
Speaker 14: the warranty that he sold me.
Speaker 5: And it probably he was saying, you wasn't part of it.
Speaker 5: You know what, I'm really happy that you fought this.
Speaker 5: You did a great job. I really appreciate you calling back.
Speaker 5: And you know what, listen to my deputy's defense when
Speaker 5: he said, you know, you should.
Speaker 1: Just bite the bullet and pay it.
Speaker 5: I would have disagreed with that advice, and he might
Speaker 5: have had his own reasoning at the time, but what
Speaker 5: I would have said was, look, I would have fought
Speaker 5: it on the warranty issue. And I'm sorry this happened
Speaker 5: to you, but man, did you Uh? I'm happy that
Speaker 5: you stuck to your guns again. Just everybody. So you know,
Speaker 5: when you have an issue with a credit card, it's
Speaker 5: wonderful they can withhold payment, but that's that creditor can
Speaker 5: still come after you if they believe that you owe
Speaker 5: them money. All right, we have more coming up three

Speaker 1: Yes? I can tell your story.
Speaker 14: So I've got a twenty twelve gmc akada.

Speaker 19: Kick us?
Speaker 5: Well, you know what, You can reset them now, Kevin,

Speaker 6: Go ahead, they can be reset or you know, we
Speaker 6: do it all the time if you want to swing
Speaker 6: by it.
Speaker 5: But if there's something wrong with them after you reset it,
Speaker 5: like I reset.
Speaker 6: Mind, you won't because the batteries are.
Speaker 1: Or they reset for a minute, right, so it.
Speaker 6: May be an issue with the sensor itself.
Speaker 1: Jerry, it's not hard.
Speaker 5: In fact, if you if you went by Kevin's, you'd
Speaker 5: probably do it free unless they had to get into it.
Speaker 1: But I mean, do you know you have a user
Speaker 1: menu on your car?

Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 1: Okay, good Chase? What's going on?
Speaker 3: Ah?
Speaker 6: Yes?
Speaker 7: I have a twenty twenty four Mazita X ninety and
Speaker 7: it's been in the shop for about two and a
Speaker 7: half months, three months now for a hybrid issue. And
Speaker 7: when I first took the car and they refused to
Speaker 7: give me a rental car, they asked if I would
Speaker 7: borrow family members.
Speaker 1: Chase, hold on a sex Chase? Is this under? Is
Speaker 1: this under a new car warranty?
Speaker 18: Correct?
Speaker 1: Okay?
Speaker 6: Yes?
Speaker 1: And how long is the warranty?
Speaker 7: The warranty was a three year, thirty thousand mile warranty
Speaker 7: and the car has eleven thousand miles on it.
Speaker 1: Okay, got it. That's what I was going to ask
Speaker 1: you next.
Speaker 5: Okay, So you have a new twenty twenty four Masa
Speaker 5: C X ninety with eleven thousand miles for goodness sakes,
Speaker 5: And however, a loaner car is not guaranteed for anyone. Okay,
Speaker 5: they don't have to give you a loaner, that's that's
Speaker 5: up to the dealer. So what's wrong with your moss?
Speaker 5: So what's wrong with it?
Speaker 7: It's the hybrid battery that's broken.
Speaker 1: And did they say they would cover it? I hope right, Yeah.
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's they said it was all covered under warranty,
Speaker 7: and but they've just been every time I called to
Speaker 7: check on up on it, they can't give me an
Speaker 7: update on when the battery is going to be done.
Speaker 5: So are you so you can't? You can't use your
Speaker 5: car right now? Is what you're saying?
Speaker 16: Correct?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 5: Man?
Speaker 1: How long has your car been out of service?
Speaker 17: For?
Speaker 7: Almost three months?
Speaker 1: Now? All that?
Speaker 5: See, Kevin, this is what I'm talking about. This poor guy.
Speaker 5: I don't blame this guy, man. I mean, at some
Speaker 5: point they got to give you a car something, you know, Chase,
Speaker 5: how much do you love this car? I'm asking like,
Speaker 5: if you could get out of the deal, would you.
Speaker 7: I've actually been calling you attorneys to try and let
Speaker 7: them all this car out right now.
Speaker 5: You should be able to because if you lose use of.
Speaker 1: It for thirty days or more, you should be able to.
Speaker 5: Did you, Hey, Katschina, give him that that attorney we use.
Speaker 1: What's her name, Raina? Yeah, why don't chase.
Speaker 5: We're gonna give you the name of somebody to consult with.
Speaker 5: Her name is Raina. This is ridiculous, man, this is
Speaker 5: absolutely ridiculous.
Speaker 1: So hold on, we're gonna give you that referral.
Speaker 8: I want to see what happens, hey, Tom three h three, Yes,
Speaker 8: before he hangs up. I just spoke to Mark about
Speaker 8: that other case and he said that hun guy would
Speaker 8: pay for a rental car on that lady's Do you
Speaker 8: think there's any chance that Masa would be willing to
Speaker 8: pay for a rental cars?
Speaker 22: Really?
Speaker 1: Who knows?
Speaker 5: At this point? Why Eric going through this? Yeah, it
Speaker 5: is absolutely something we should choose. He should check and
Speaker 5: and it's just it's just a troch. Is what's happening
Speaker 5: with warranties nowadays? We hear this story every single week
Speaker 5: where people can't get their cars, they can't drive them,
Speaker 5: they're brand new, they're under warranty, and then they're screwed.
Speaker 5: It's it's really it's amazing to me. All right, Deputy
Speaker 5: Deputy d did you have something you wanted.
Speaker 1: To bring up? I thought am I am I remembering right.
Speaker 27: Well, we just discussed with Kevin the update on that
Speaker 27: rearmain seat.
Speaker 6: Okay.
Speaker 5: Now, as far as the rearmain seals, somebody also said
Speaker 5: that where where the transmission cooks into the engine?
Speaker 1: Okay, what kind of seal is there?
Speaker 6: Well, again, the seals in the motor. Because you have
Speaker 6: the engine, you bolt a flywheel to it. The flywheel
Speaker 6: bolts of the transmission. Okay, So there is no real
Speaker 6: there's no shaft connection. No, the connection is the flywheel
Speaker 6: and the torque verter. Okay, so there's no Yeah, there's
Speaker 6: nothing to get right into the engine.
Speaker 5: So Kevin, somebody wants to know, how do you test
Speaker 5: a car truly for leak? Okay, let's say somebody cleans
Speaker 5: up a used car and you want to know, hey,
Speaker 5: is this a leaky trap?
Speaker 1: How would you test for leaks?
Speaker 6: That's a challenge. I mean if you steam clean it
Speaker 6: and pressure Washington, do you do.
Speaker 1: That on a used car? Check up all the time.
Speaker 6: Yeah, Sometimes we'll have to put dies in, you know,
Speaker 6: different dyes in the oil and cool it.
Speaker 5: So if you found where they've cleaned up a car
Speaker 5: but it had a massive leak, you can you can
Speaker 5: usually tell.
Speaker 1: Can you also find people who try to patch it?
Speaker 1: From me? Do those patches from the outside never work?
Speaker 6: I see people ala like they're siliconing a window.
Speaker 5: It's I mean, all the stuff you buy at the
Speaker 5: hardware store, at the auto park store, and they say
Speaker 5: clean up the area and topically, how could.
Speaker 1: You do that?
Speaker 6: It doesn't, No, it doesn't. Now, there's no. You can't
Speaker 6: get around a leak's leak. You know, either the seal
Speaker 6: is not ceiling, it's too small, it's cracked, or the
Speaker 6: gasket is just dried up. I mean, it just happens.
Speaker 27: Kevin, what are you speaking of leaks? You know my
Speaker 27: car has two hundred thousand miles on it.
Speaker 1: Now you have two hundred thousand on that.
Speaker 27: Well, it's my beloved Toyota four runners, so it's it's
Speaker 27: bare broken in, but it doesn't have even a hint
Speaker 27: of an oil leak, not wood. So once in a
Speaker 27: while I use what's called a high mileage oil, which
Speaker 27: has those gasket expanders.
Speaker 20: Am I doing the right thing at home?
Speaker 1: Okay? I didn't even know they made that.
Speaker 6: What is it called high mileage oil?
Speaker 1: And what does it do?
Speaker 6: It's got different different additives for softening seals.
Speaker 1: Come on, it does and it actually expands the seal.
Speaker 6: It conditions the seals more.
Speaker 27: It keeps it from like drying out and getting like plastic,
Speaker 27: like turn into a hard plastic.
Speaker 6: High mileage oil or high milods oil additive you add
Speaker 6: to conventional oil.
Speaker 20: Either way, and how often should you do that?
Speaker 6: You can use it every time?
Speaker 20: But is there is it?
Speaker 5: You know?
Speaker 27: I end up using it probably every second or third
Speaker 27: time because it's not always on sale at walmarts, So
Speaker 27: you know what I mean?
Speaker 6: Either way? I mean once you start it, and you
Speaker 6: probably just keep using it.
Speaker 20: And what is your opinion of those here?
Speaker 1: Now?
Speaker 27: I haven't used this, but there is a super high
Speaker 27: molybdenum added of products.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, those I hear germony.
Speaker 27: And comes in this weird looking gray bottle.
Speaker 6: That's a moligdum based Is there.
Speaker 27: Any downside to using this much molybdenum? Could it clogg something?
Speaker 1: Okay?
Speaker 5: I got an interesting story there. There was a product
Speaker 5: called c l M. It stood for copper uh lead
Speaker 5: I believe or no copper lithium and molybdenum.
Speaker 1: All right, CLM. It was the best.
Speaker 5: Oil additive I have ever tested and used in my
Speaker 5: entire life.
Speaker 20: How do you know it was good?
Speaker 16: What was?
Speaker 5: We took a car and we ran it without oil,
Speaker 5: hold on with with just we put the CLM in it. Okay,
Speaker 5: what I mean is and then took the CLM out
Speaker 5: drained it. Okay, So that car ran with CLM for
Speaker 5: about a thousand miles.
Speaker 1: Then we drained it.
Speaker 5: Then we went on a track and we started driving
Speaker 5: it until it sees. Oh, we could hardly get it
Speaker 5: to seize. It was just getting high oil temes. Now
Speaker 5: we open up the car and we it is amazing.
Speaker 5: This CLM would take the copper, lithium and melidamum and
Speaker 5: it would take it and coat the engine. It literally
Speaker 5: almost like melted and went into the cracks and crevices
Speaker 5: of the engine. It repaired the cylinders. And this man
Speaker 5: was a dear friend of mine.
Speaker 1: He died.
Speaker 5: He had sold it to another man who was a
Speaker 5: really nice guy. And it was at one time being
Speaker 5: marketed by I think his name was Peter maybe, and
Speaker 5: then I don't know where it went.
Speaker 1: It disappeared.
Speaker 20: Can you track it down? Maybe we'll bring it.
Speaker 5: Is the best oil additive I've ever seen in my
Speaker 5: entire life, and we had mechanics looking at the insides
Speaker 5: of that engine thinking, oh my god, it repaired the cylinder.
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, and it was coated with metal.
Speaker 20: Is nodding, So, Kevin, does that mean.
Speaker 6: You have you heard I've seen those things? What was
Speaker 6: that one that was similar?
Speaker 20: I slicked fifty remember the thick oil?
Speaker 1: Yeah, but this was this was.
Speaker 5: This had this had tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny molecules of
Speaker 5: metal and literally coated the engine with.
Speaker 1: That metal where it was needed.
Speaker 6: That would be great to similar to the m A
Speaker 6: the BG cells, I've seen them.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Bron, I don't know. The cling right now.
Speaker 5: May not be anything big because this guy was a
Speaker 5: physicist or somewhat of a scientist and he developed it,
Speaker 5: but it might be today's technology.
Speaker 1: Maybe everyone has it. I mean I don't know.
Speaker 5: Oil additives with metal in it. People would say you
Speaker 5: can't put metal shavings, and there were shavings, there were
Speaker 5: microscopic beads.
Speaker 1: But man, did it work.
Speaker 5: And again I'm not impressed easily, but this was impressive.

Speaker 17: Man, okay, and I'm going to But I signed off

Speaker 1: to do with? What did we talk?
Speaker 17: They still? I paid them two hundred bucks. They said, well,
Speaker 17: you still always two hundred. I didn't because she they said,
Speaker 17: she lives there.
Speaker 5: Wait, Brad, they're not, Brad, they're not trying to collect anymore.
Speaker 1: Right, there's they stopped right.
Speaker 18: Not now they stopped.

Speaker 17: I'm paying insurance for an eight and two year old
Speaker 17: lady that doesn't drive my cars forrad Nvisity.
Speaker 1: Brad, this is what I'm trying to ask you.
Speaker 5: The extra money they were going to charge you for
Speaker 5: your eighty two year old mother?
Speaker 1: Are you still paying that?
Speaker 25: No?
Speaker 11: I paid.
Speaker 17: I had to pay two hundred because they wouldn't take
Speaker 17: her name off it. They said, so you all are
Speaker 17: two hundred and I will tell you that my insurance
Speaker 17: lady told me you have to pay that amount or
Speaker 17: they're going to come acting.
Speaker 5: Well, then that then that money's under the under the bridge.
Speaker 5: You're not going to get that back, but I can.

Speaker 1: I don't know if these tariffs are going to be
Speaker 1: just a threat.
Speaker 5: And eventually he's expecting a deal, and maybe he doesn't
Speaker 5: expect this to be long range, but this country could
Speaker 5: not sustain it if it's long range. I'm telling you
Speaker 5: things would be too expensive. And now I'm not going
Speaker 5: to try to guess what Trump and his party's doing.
Speaker 5: But the Harris right now are having very negative effects.

Speaker 1: Let's talk. I don't like what I'm hearing about this.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: This soldier.
Speaker 5: Who comes to uh, let's see he he uh he
Speaker 5: comes to Denver. He moves to Denver from Texas and
Speaker 5: he signs.
Speaker 1: The lease.
Speaker 5: And Deputy Bow is going down there to confront them.
Speaker 5: He signs a lease. Now he has a lease. Okay,
Speaker 5: so he has a lease.
Speaker 1: And then.
Speaker 5: He parks right outside his apartment. They had not get
Speaker 5: they had not gotten him a parking pass yet, and
Speaker 5: so his cars get booted. Now that sucks. That's Cameron.
Speaker 1: That sucks.
Speaker 5: There's no there's there's no rhyme or reason. He has
Speaker 5: assigned lease. Now technically he didn't have a parking pass,
Speaker 5: but they were working on getting him a parking pass.
Speaker 5: They could simply look, come on, look at.
Speaker 1: The damn thing.
Speaker 5: Look at the substance of this. This isn't some outlaw.
Speaker 5: The reason for that boot is to is to penalize outlaws.
Speaker 1: So park it right, put a boot on it.
Speaker 5: Now, park it might be saying to the apartment complex, hey,
Speaker 5: we did what we're supposed to do. We want to
Speaker 5: be paid. And that's just what they would do because
Speaker 5: they suck the parket right should be called parket wrong.
Speaker 1: He'd say, well, they're the only ones I know that
Speaker 1: do that. But no, he didn't actually say it was
Speaker 1: parking right.
Speaker 6: That's cheaper than the last one we just talked to.
Speaker 6: The other one was three hundred for one day. He's
Speaker 6: three hundred for both cars.
Speaker 5: Yeah, three hundred, that's right. So so, but here's the problem.
Speaker 5: We have Cameron here making a new life in Denver
Speaker 5: and he moved into spy Class Creek apartments. Now I
Speaker 5: believe spike spy spy Glass Creek, Okay, I believe that
Speaker 5: they owe him something because look at they're the ones
Speaker 5: that didn't get him the parking passes. It would be
Speaker 5: different if he had parking passes and did not display them.
Speaker 5: But he did not even have them. And this is
Speaker 5: spy Glass Creek in Denver. I've never heard of this place,
Speaker 5: Eyeglass Creek anyway. That's one problem that bothered me a lot.
Speaker 5: Another one, a guy with a brand new twenty twenty
Speaker 5: four Monster c X ninety, brand new, eleven thousand miles.
Speaker 1: He bought it from brand new, bad hybrid battery.
Speaker 5: Guess what, He's been out of commission for nine weeks.
Speaker 5: Can't use this car, can't get a referral, can't I
Speaker 5: mean consuming, He can't get a loaner, So we referred
Speaker 5: him to a Lemon law attorney. People, it's getting ridiculous
Speaker 5: where cars are being put out of commission for too long,
Speaker 5: way beyond the warranty periods. And I mean these people
Speaker 5: are are like sometimes waiting three six nine. We had
Speaker 5: one person that didn't have used their car for a year.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 5: At some point that becomes unconscionable. For God's sakes. I
Speaker 5: don't know why manufacturers are having a tough time supporting Kevin.
Speaker 1: What is causing this?
Speaker 5: Why are manufacturers with some parts acts six to nine months.
Speaker 1: It just doesn't make sense to.
Speaker 6: Say it doesn't. And it's such a I think it's
Speaker 6: more of a unicorn being a hybrid masta that they're not.
Speaker 6: They're just not that many manufactured yet, you know, on
Speaker 6: this particular one. But others. Yeah, there's there's absolutely no
Speaker 6: excuse for this.
Speaker 1: What was the longest you've ever had to wait for something?
Speaker 6: Probably about six months. I he's a racking pinon and
Speaker 6: a ford of all things. This didn't happen.
Speaker 5: Okay three oh three seven one three talk seven one
Speaker 5: three eight two five five.
Speaker 1: If you need help, informa.
Speaker 5: Sure referrals say his car day and I want to.
Speaker 5: I've been trying to think about this people, and I
Speaker 5: want you to. I want you to chime in. Let
Speaker 5: me know what's the ideal car if you had to
Speaker 5: have one car and one car only?
Speaker 1: Are you on mark? Yeah? How do I say it?
Speaker 1: Am I good?
Speaker 6: Now?
Speaker 18: Yeah?
Speaker 6: You're a right?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Now what is your number? What would be your
Speaker 1: all around? I mean all around?
Speaker 5: You can you can't, you know, use anything else?
Speaker 1: What would it be? No? Yeah, yeah, I'd get the
Speaker 1: suv the.
Speaker 5: X but yeah, okay, now now wait a minute, now
Speaker 5: I got you the SUV.
Speaker 1: That would be it?
Speaker 5: Can you do the Does the SUV have pretty good
Speaker 5: cargo space?
Speaker 1: It's not bad. It's like it's like a Santa fe.
Speaker 30: It depends how you buy it, because you can buy
Speaker 30: it with five.
Speaker 1: Seats, six seats, or seven seats. Yeah, this is what
Speaker 1: I wanted to ask you.
Speaker 5: When you buy that X and you and you do
Speaker 5: the five seats, well that's three and two.
Speaker 1: I see that, and then you have the cargo.
Speaker 5: But if you buy it with more seats, where do
Speaker 5: those seats go? Do they do a third row?
Speaker 1: Yeah? The third row.
Speaker 30: So if you get the plaid model, you have to
Speaker 30: get the six seat configuration. So you have your two
Speaker 30: front seats, then you have like two bucket seats in
Speaker 30: the back. They're individual seats, almost like captain's chairs in
Speaker 30: an old school van. And then behind it is a
Speaker 30: two more seats that fold down, so you have all
Speaker 30: the cargo area if you don't have six passengers.
Speaker 1: Okay, that sounds pretty cool. You know that X is
Speaker 1: hard to be.
Speaker 5: But the problem is I can't tell an X when
Speaker 5: I see it on the street from the other models.
Speaker 5: Those models meld together, except for the S. They meld
Speaker 5: together for me.
Speaker 30: You're seeing You're just not seeing a lot of x's
Speaker 30: out there. I think it's only I want to say
Speaker 30: it's one maybe two percent of their production.
Speaker 1: There's very few s's and x's.
Speaker 30: You're seeing ys and a lot of why's look different
Speaker 30: depending on what. Okay, the X definitely looks different, especially
Speaker 30: when you open the doors. It's Lamborghini doors in the back.
Speaker 5: I know, now, the new twenty twenty five I hear that,
Speaker 5: not twenty twenty five, it would be twenty twenty six
Speaker 5: S model is going to kick.
Speaker 1: But it looks like a Corvette. Have you seen it?
Speaker 1: You mean the new S Yeah, I know, give video Sam, Yeah.
Speaker 30: Yeah, it's absolutely nuts man. In fact, that'll be my
Speaker 30: next one. I'll keep my current one till then. But yeah,
Speaker 30: you know, honestly, I always go back to this. It's
Speaker 30: the self driving. I am so used to it now.
Speaker 30: I don't even like getting into the Santa Fe. You know,
Speaker 30: we toe that everywhere because it's a great.
Speaker 1: Winter to car.
Speaker 30: But my god, man, it's like, uh, you just walk
Speaker 30: up to the car, it opens up. When you park,
Speaker 30: you just get out. It locks the doors, it opens
Speaker 30: the doors. It's just the dang thing does everything, Tom.
Speaker 30: I mean, you don't have to do anything, you.
Speaker 1: Know, mark the self driving.
Speaker 5: Forgive me if I'm going over materials, but that we've
Speaker 5: gone over. But okay, you're sitting in a parking lot
Speaker 5: when you hit the self drive butt to come to
Speaker 5: my house. For example, will it navigate out of that
Speaker 5: parking lot?
Speaker 30: Yeah, so if you've got to reverse out. Typically, let's
Speaker 30: say I'm parked at iHeart in the circle up front
Speaker 30: the circle, I would back out, I'd back out of
Speaker 30: the circle, I'd put in your I'd just pull up
Speaker 30: Tom's own address.
Speaker 1: I'd hit that button.
Speaker 30: Then I hit one more button and it'll drive me
Speaker 30: out of the circle. So to answer your question, I
Speaker 30: would back up, then put it in. I would swipe
Speaker 30: into drive and then hit autopilot, and then it would
Speaker 30: bring me directly to your house and pull into your
Speaker 30: driveway or park right in front of your house.
Speaker 1: Now tell me the truth.
Speaker 5: Mark, are you saying you could do that without ever
Speaker 5: touching the wheel?
Speaker 30: Yeah, I mean almost every time. I'm not saying something
Speaker 30: might not happen, but I mean pretty much every single time.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 30: The only time gets a little thrown off. I'm trying
Speaker 30: to think of like a real world example. Generally, it's
Speaker 30: me being a little impatient. I want to go faster,
Speaker 30: so I'll kick it out of autopilot and then put
Speaker 30: it back in.
Speaker 1: That would be about the only time.
Speaker 5: All right, Now, Mac, what's going on with you you
Speaker 5: have an ideal car, what would it be?
Speaker 17: Yeah?
Speaker 12: I have two quick things. My ideal car is my
Speaker 12: twenty twelve Toyota Camri Hybrid. It is bulletproof, great, fifty
Speaker 12: miles a gallon, and never had.
Speaker 14: One to do with it.
Speaker 12: The second thing, Tom, is, we were involved in a
Speaker 12: car accident a few weeks ago and we have a
Speaker 12: dash cam and it saved my wife from being at
Speaker 12: fault for the entire accident. Twenty dollars on Amazon. It's
Speaker 12: called seventy MOI is the name of it, and they're
Speaker 12: like twenty two dollars. So I'd recommend everybody to have
Speaker 12: a dash cam.
Speaker 5: Now, Mac, explain to me how how did you use it?
Speaker 5: I will I want to hear a real life example.
Speaker 1: Of how you used it. Yeah, so tell me the story.
Speaker 12: It was driving to work. She was driving on thirty
Speaker 12: six going east, coming up to the five over overbridge,
Speaker 12: and traffic stopped. She was in a four car accident.
Speaker 12: She was number three in the four car accident, and
Speaker 12: the state patrol showed up, did an investigation and wanted
Speaker 12: to cite her for the entirety of the accident.
Speaker 5: Why did they want to cite her for the entirety.
Speaker 12: Because driver number two had said he stopped and my
Speaker 12: wife hit him and pushed him into the middle number
Speaker 12: one and I got it. Wait a minute, we've got it.
Speaker 12: We've got a dash cam and that The state patrol said, well,
Speaker 12: why didn't you say something? And I said, well, we
Speaker 12: settled in on the accident report.
Speaker 1: Okay, so what did what did the dash cam show?
Speaker 12: It showed that he was not that he was not stopped,
Speaker 12: so she was not cited for the accident, which saved
Speaker 12: her butt. So moral of the story is, have a
Speaker 12: dash camp.
Speaker 5: So he didn't stop an until he did stop eventually,
Speaker 5: So and that's when your wife hit him.
Speaker 12: Yeah, but she would have been cited for the entirety
Speaker 12: of the accident.
Speaker 5: If if no, I get it, I get it, I
Speaker 5: mean to me, to me, it sounds like it sounds
Speaker 5: like it was well worth the twenty two bucks for
Speaker 5: gonna say no no dash cams. I think that in
Speaker 5: fact cars you should start having cams built in.
Speaker 1: But then there are those who don't like yeah it.
Speaker 5: Yeah, thanks Mac for the call appreciated. Three oh three

Speaker 5: all wheel drive, right, yeah, so an all wheel drive.
Speaker 1: And probably want UV because of snow Man. Yeah.
Speaker 6: Now.
Speaker 5: One thing that I loved and they stopped making it,
Speaker 5: and I don't know why was the Avalanche.
Speaker 1: The Chevy Appalanche was suck. I loved it. It's so
Speaker 1: beautiful and and I don't know why they stopped making it.
Speaker 5: I had a four door cab, wonderful cab in and
Speaker 5: of it. Remember, and then you have a then you
Speaker 5: have the pickup and you can cover the pickup or
Speaker 5: you could have it open.
Speaker 1: And it was just like a gentleman's pickup truck.
Speaker 5: But it really was all around, I think best vehicle
Speaker 5: there is.
Speaker 1: It was great in the snow.
Speaker 5: It's luxurious enough to be comfortable and fun, and it
Speaker 5: had a pickup truck and it wasn't a pickup truck
Speaker 5: like the El Camino. It was a real pickup truck.
Speaker 5: Do you think anyone ever bought the El Camino for
Speaker 5: the pickup truck?
Speaker 6: Some did. I mean that when it first came out
Speaker 6: it was very small cab.
Speaker 1: That was a stupid car. Yeah, that was a car truck.
Speaker 5: And I just never could understand that. Somebody else said
Speaker 5: a jeep. Jeeps are perfect vehicles. You never really those jeeps.
Speaker 30: You ever see like those El Caminos or vehicles like
Speaker 30: that where they have that suspension that can go like
Speaker 30: up and down and bounce around and sideways.
Speaker 14: And all that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like the lowriders, the low.
Speaker 30: Riders, lowriders, those are pretty cool. Kevin, you guys ever
Speaker 30: do anything like that over at Sheridan.
Speaker 6: No, we don't do any kind of custom stuff.
Speaker 5: No, man, that's a whole specialties, a complete specialty, even
Speaker 5: more so than just regular street rods. You have the
Speaker 5: low riders and then you have street rods. Sometimes are
Speaker 5: the same, but they're not always the same. And you know,
Speaker 5: I'll tell you what the new, it's not new. But
Speaker 5: one of the things a lot of these younger people
Speaker 5: like doing is buying these used Japanese cars and then
Speaker 5: boosting the hell out of ye Now, can they really
Speaker 5: get five hundred horse out of some of those out
Speaker 5: of those little tiny engines?
Speaker 6: Well, yeah, it's just with all the boltons, absolutely, and
Speaker 6: they ken no, no, no, they tear them up, Yeah
Speaker 6: they do.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So these kids go out and buy old Japanese cars.
Speaker 6: Well even like soup of the WRX and different things
Speaker 6: are one of the more popular ones.
Speaker 5: And then they they soup them up, they drive the
Speaker 5: hell out of them and get another one.
Speaker 1: Yep, they eat that engine a lot.
Speaker 6: And destroy it.
Speaker 27: Yes, hey, Kevin, you know, one of the one of
Speaker 27: the really annoying trends I've noticed in the past ten
Speaker 27: years or so is these cars that we're just discussed,
Speaker 27: but they're somehow they do something to the valve timing
Speaker 27: so that when they deccelerate, they start to making.
Speaker 20: This bang bang bang and like back on purpose?
Speaker 1: On purpose?
Speaker 6: What is that?
Speaker 20: What does that do to the valve train?
Speaker 6: It's not good for none of it is. It's their
Speaker 6: oversized turbos. You cooler and the boost and everything.
Speaker 20: But bang bang bang backfire sound. What do they think?
Speaker 22: Yeah?
Speaker 20: What do they think? That accomplishes?
Speaker 6: Nothing?
Speaker 1: It's for show. It's for show.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and started in the tunnels. You've never done that?
Speaker 5: No, because what happens if you turn your carference started in.
Speaker 6: The tunnel carbureted car, the fuel keeps going through the exhaust,
Speaker 6: and then when you start it, when you're in a tunnel,
Speaker 6: you get a five foot flame come out of your team?
Speaker 21: Do really?
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, really absolutely, because because you're ingesting, the gas.
Speaker 6: Is still coming through the car because you're still rolling.
Speaker 6: But you shut the car off, so the gas now
Speaker 6: is coming through Ralph fuel is in the exhaust when
Speaker 6: you started it, if it.
Speaker 1: Explodes, have you seen people do that?
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5: It's like a thing like beeping your horn. Yeah, you
Speaker 5: just go ahead, I just beat my horn to here
Speaker 5: the echo that's boring?
Speaker 20: This doesn't that also destroy the category?
Speaker 1: Somebody? Here's the text. Here's a text.
Speaker 5: And by the way, people, you can text me a
Speaker 5: seven four seven nine nine nine fifty two eighty remember
Speaker 5: all the time twenty four seven seven four seven nine
Speaker 5: nine nine fifty two eighty. This one says, I'm looking
Speaker 5: for a twenty twenty three Chevy Silverado r st Z
Speaker 5: seventy one four x four five point three Leader.
Speaker 1: My god, it's got to be blue. Well what do
Speaker 1: you think about it?
Speaker 5: Well, what do you think about that combination? Well, first
Speaker 5: of all, it's a Chevy Silverado, it's the rst Z
Speaker 5: seventy one, and it's of course the four x four
Speaker 5: five point three Leader. He wants to know what you
Speaker 5: think about those trucks in general, the Silver autos.
Speaker 1: Kevin, Yeah, I'm in general.
Speaker 6: I'm not sure what the RST stood for.
Speaker 5: That was no, But what about you and just Chevy
Speaker 5: sold I know they're decent.
Speaker 6: They had some issues, you know what. They had a
Speaker 6: what they call it lift or delete where they were
Speaker 6: trying to save fuel. It shut the cylinders off. But
Speaker 6: I think they got that pretty well figured out in
Speaker 6: the five three. So yeah, it's a good truck.
Speaker 5: Somebody else texted and said that it's illegal to boot
Speaker 5: in Denver. I don't know what that means. I thought
Speaker 5: the Denver Boot's still alive and well, but.
Speaker 6: They challenged because I knew a guy who was booting
Speaker 6: car mark.
Speaker 5: Did you hear about that soldier that he gets out
Speaker 5: of the army. He's making a home in Denver from Texas.
Speaker 5: He signs the lease with the spyglass whatever the hell
Speaker 5: it is apartments, he signs the lease. They could not
Speaker 5: get him a parking pass right away because the woman
Speaker 5: didn't know how to do it. So he's parked out
Speaker 5: in front of his apartment and both of his cars
Speaker 5: get booted by park it right.
Speaker 1: And even though he had a lease, even though.
Speaker 5: He had a lease and can prove he's a tenant,
Speaker 5: they will not take it off unless he pays three
Speaker 5: hundred dollars.
Speaker 30: That's crazy, man, I mean, that's absolutely nuts.
Speaker 25: I know it.
Speaker 30: And and you know, you remember when market got off
Speaker 30: from the parking right or what is.
Speaker 1: I talked about that earlier? Yeah, that was we did.
Speaker 1: We took it. We towed the car away and then
Speaker 1: saw the Buddha.
Speaker 5: We don't even have to tow the car away if
Speaker 5: he just has a good grinder A Ryobi grinder. He
Speaker 5: can just grind the hell out of that thing and
Speaker 5: take it off. There's no law in the land that
Speaker 5: says he can't do that. I mean, that's they're gonna say, Well,
Speaker 5: that's personal property, you know, you left it around my car.
Speaker 30: I just thought of something. Man, what was that guy's name?
Speaker 30: What's the name of it? Ride it ticket?
Speaker 6: What is it?
Speaker 1: No, it's it's a park it right. Hold on, I'm
Speaker 1: going to try to call him. Hold on one second,
Speaker 1: all right, I want you to I got I got it.
Speaker 1: I want to see if he'll do something, Yeah, like
Speaker 1: give this soldier a break? How about that one? That
Speaker 1: would be good.
Speaker 27: So I did look up the state boot private booting
Speaker 27: regulations and they are not a whole lot of them,
Speaker 27: but the pertinent parts are. They do allow for a
Speaker 27: maximum of one hundred and sixty dollars per boot, and
Speaker 27: they also require the towing company or the booting company
Speaker 27: to show up within ninety minutes of that fee being
Speaker 27: paid on weekdays and I believe one hundred and twenty
Speaker 27: minutes on.
Speaker 1: The week What does it say about the warnings.
Speaker 27: It doesn't say The state regulation doesn't say anything about it.
Speaker 1: There's got to be warning.
Speaker 27: So it appears that there's a shift from private towing
Speaker 27: to private booting because the towing has become so restricted now.
Speaker 27: So I think we're going to get a lot more
Speaker 27: of these calls.
Speaker 1: So this may not be park it right, it could
Speaker 1: be somebody else.
Speaker 27: Yeah, I didn't catch the name, and I don't every
Speaker 27: man even know he told I don't think he told us.
Speaker 1: All right, we have more coming up on the Troubleshooter Show.

Speaker 5: Hi Tom Martine here, welcome three O three seven to
Speaker 5: one three talk.
Speaker 1: We have open lines if you want to get right
Speaker 1: through it.
Speaker 5: Today's car Dad Kevin Calk with me shared an auto tech.
Speaker 5: We've been talking about the ideal car. If you had
Speaker 5: to pick one and one alone, what would you pick?
Speaker 5: Some people, of course, would be different than me. I
Speaker 5: would always want some kind of an ability.
Speaker 1: To call stuff. Not a lot of stuff.
Speaker 5: I don't do near what I used to do, but
Speaker 5: I'd want the ability to hault something. I also like
Speaker 5: the idea of of course all weather.
Speaker 1: You know, I want something good in the snow.
Speaker 5: I also want something that can carry five people at
Speaker 5: least okay, me and four others.
Speaker 1: I don't think you need more than that. But so,
Speaker 1: what is an ideal car?
Speaker 5: You know there are some ideal deals and values out there,
Speaker 5: but let's let's meaning that you can get a great
Speaker 5: value on something, but it may not fit all your needs.
Speaker 1: What about if you picked two cars? What would they be? Now?
Speaker 5: Think about that. That opens up the whole world. If
Speaker 5: you had two cars, what would they be?
Speaker 1: And what? Yeah? And why? I think one?
Speaker 5: If I was going to have two cars, I would
Speaker 5: have one be a sports car.
Speaker 1: That's the only reason I'd have two cars.
Speaker 5: Sure, because the difference to me between an suv and
Speaker 5: a car is not that much. The SUVs nowadays are
Speaker 5: so sporty and nice that you don't need an suv
Speaker 5: and a car. So if I was going to get
Speaker 5: a second vehicle and I didn't need one, it would
Speaker 5: be a sports car.
Speaker 1: What about you, d what would you get?
Speaker 27: I'll probably get one that's identical to mind with less
Speaker 27: mileage because I'll never be able to buy another Forerunner
Speaker 27: with a venerable one g r F E engine.
Speaker 20: Why they don't make them, No, they discontinued.
Speaker 27: This is the V sixes, and they're going with these
Speaker 27: weird four cylinder twin turbocharged engines, and I'll never get
Speaker 27: half a million miles with one of those.
Speaker 5: Ever, when you turbocharge an engine, you cut down the
Speaker 5: lifespan no matter what you do.
Speaker 6: Yeah, you just basically, no matter what, you trying to
Speaker 6: get an engine to do something.
Speaker 1: Physics, you're putting more. You're putting more boost to. Absolutely,
Speaker 1: you're gonna do more. Do more?
Speaker 27: Were it's what do they say about the light that
Speaker 27: burns twice as bright, burnurns out for half the time.
Speaker 1: That's right.
Speaker 5: So here's the bottom line. If I had two cars,
Speaker 5: what would they be? Hey, morons, what would your two
Speaker 5: cars be? Mine would be a sports car and I
Speaker 5: don't think there's any And you're gonna think I'm crazy
Speaker 5: because there's a big disparity in price, but not in quality.
Speaker 5: There's two sports cars. I would only consider only two,
Speaker 5: Only two. There's not any others I would One would
Speaker 5: be the Ferrari and it would be the California. It's
Speaker 5: the best bang for the buck. And or it would
Speaker 5: be a Corvette. And I think Corvette's probably the better
Speaker 5: value there, oh by far.
Speaker 1: So I think if I had two cars, one would
Speaker 1: be a Corvette.
Speaker 5: What would the second one be? Now I can have
Speaker 5: some leeway because I don't need you know, I have
Speaker 5: the fun, I have the kick in the pants. So
Speaker 5: my second one might be just a nice suv, maybe
Speaker 5: a Mercedes. Well, no, you tell me. The German cars
Speaker 5: now are not that great. What's a good suv? How
Speaker 5: about Hummer?
Speaker 17: No?
Speaker 27: Oh well, how about one of the older land cruisers
Speaker 27: with the Toyota V eight in it.
Speaker 5: Do you remember the land cruisers that looked like jeeps?
Speaker 5: They look like they were, No, they weren't. Before the
Speaker 5: FJ it was it looked literally like a g.
Speaker 20: Oh yeah, they copied it right after World War Two.
Speaker 5: It was a beautiful vehicle that those kinds of toilet
Speaker 5: land cruisers are beautiful anyway. Three oh three seven one
Speaker 5: three talks seven one three A two five five. Here's
Speaker 5: a text Kevin. His car overheats, okay, but not all
Speaker 5: the time, okay, So and it doesn't have any connection
Speaker 5: to the outside air temperature, just every once in a
Speaker 5: while his car overheats.
Speaker 1: What what would cause that?
Speaker 5: A malfunctioning thermostat maybe and that sometimes works and sometimes doesn't.
Speaker 6: Possible, or cooling fan not coming on? I mean, is
Speaker 6: it is it overheating sitting still or overheating driving? Things
Speaker 6: like that you'd have to take into consideration. So is
Speaker 6: it under acceleration when it's erheating or okay? Or sitting
Speaker 6: at idle in overheating.
Speaker 5: But overheating obviously shouldn't happen obviously, and when it does
Speaker 5: happen is mostly underload. What's the the what's the most
Speaker 5: common reason? Would it be a bad thermostat?
Speaker 6: Thermostat's a very anymore They're going failsafe though, they'll get
Speaker 6: stuck open.
Speaker 1: So then at least you have circulation.
Speaker 6: You have circulation and no heat, so you know, cooling
Speaker 6: fans are a big problem. Electric fans. Okay, and you
Speaker 6: know the extreme you know is head gaskets are starting
Speaker 6: to leak.
Speaker 27: You know what, what about the frequently overlooked filthy radiator?
Speaker 20: Well, yeah, you could have airfir and I have an
Speaker 20: airflow problem.
Speaker 6: And then where you drive.
Speaker 1: Sure, Now somebody else wants to know.
Speaker 5: Why do they see people driving around sometimes with cardboard
Speaker 5: over their radiator.
Speaker 6: Can't get any heat, so they're just blocking the airflow you.
Speaker 5: See, make there to make their cars run hotter on purpose, yes,
Speaker 5: or their trucks or warmer you see.
Speaker 1: Sometimes isn't that a defect in the system.
Speaker 6: Then it could have just an oversized cooling system, and yeah,
Speaker 6: there's something going on where it's not heating up.
Speaker 1: And that you would think it makes some automatic kind
Speaker 1: of baffling you could do like that.
Speaker 6: And there's some cards that do have baffles. Yeah, the
Speaker 6: one what were we working on the other day. There's
Speaker 6: a Jaguar or somebody has baffles in the front.
Speaker 5: Here's another one. Ask Kevin, this is a cool one.
Speaker 5: The card with the lowest maintenance costs that he would
Speaker 5: know if you had to own a car with the
Speaker 5: lowest maintenance costs, that's a good one.
Speaker 1: It aren't they all if you do the.
Speaker 5: Right knew they're all the same, Like if you just
Speaker 5: take care of them, aren't they all the same or not?
Speaker 6: And then you know the repairs you get some cars,
Speaker 6: like we brag about toads all the time. When they
Speaker 6: do break, they're more expensive to fix, so dollar wise
Speaker 6: it may be a push. You know, an alternator or
Speaker 6: a toad is three times what it is on a Chevy.
Speaker 6: Things like that.
Speaker 1: So, and here's what I have.
Speaker 5: Why are the range Rovers so beautiful?
Speaker 1: But are pieces of crap?
Speaker 5: I wish they weren't pieces of crack because they do
Speaker 5: some beautiful finish and trim and beautiful bodies.
Speaker 1: So are they English?
Speaker 6: Yes?
Speaker 5: Yeah, so that's like the Jaguar and all that English
Speaker 5: styling with a car is.
Speaker 1: I mean they are absolutely.
Speaker 5: Stunning, yes, But where you get when they get to
Speaker 5: the mechanics and the electrics so is Uh why hasn't
Speaker 5: anyone taken range Rover and changed it?
Speaker 1: I mean do people just put up with it?
Speaker 6: I think so? And I don't know why. I mean,
Speaker 6: everything on there is overpriced and.
Speaker 1: It's it's almost a joke.
Speaker 5: You you talk to people, they say, yeah, I know
Speaker 5: it's a piece of junk, but I love it.
Speaker 1: They really know there.
Speaker 5: You talk to even any mechanic range rovers, they're.
Speaker 6: They're they're They're always on the list.
Speaker 1: They're always on the list.
Speaker 6: In one and you get tempted because they are.
Speaker 1: I get tempted. Now they're beautiful.
Speaker 5: Or now maybe if they went to an electric one,
Speaker 5: it would be different. I don't know because where is
Speaker 5: the junk? Where do they fall back? Because everyone agrees,
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, razeow you got a range drawer A So
Speaker 5: where is it? They're talking about the engine, the components,
Speaker 5: the transmission, all of the above.
Speaker 1: What are they talking about?
Speaker 6: It's it's all the above. There's a lot of proprietary staff,
Speaker 6: which is challenging because all the other manufacturers you can.
Speaker 5: Use and the manufacturers actually land Rover right, yes, and
Speaker 5: then they make the range Rover correct and they make
Speaker 5: other cars too.
Speaker 6: Yes.
Speaker 5: Okay, we got more coming up on the Troubleshooter Show

Speaker 5: home with Remax Alliance three nine two zero sixteen twenty two.
Speaker 5: Hi Tom Martinez, you're a troubleshooter, Deputy Bow we sent out.
Speaker 1: Let me tell you the story.
Speaker 5: Cameron moved here from Texas, a veteran, just out of
Speaker 5: the army, just set up a place. He signs a
Speaker 5: lease with Spyglass Creek Apartments and did not get a
Speaker 5: parking sticker because they said they didn't know how to
Speaker 5: do that with an out of state plate that he had.
Speaker 1: I don't have any idea what that means.
Speaker 5: All I know is Cameron said he was parked outside
Speaker 5: his apartment. He has a lease, he has parking privileges,
Speaker 5: but they booted his car because he wasn't showing the
Speaker 5: parking pass. Now, if you look at it from the
Speaker 5: pure sense of what happened, if the parking people are
Speaker 5: driving around and they seek cars without a pass and
Speaker 5: they're instructed to boot them, then they've done nothing wrong.
Speaker 5: They don't know who has a leason who doesn't, and
Speaker 5: that's why they want the parking pass. But once management
Speaker 5: found out it was a mistake and that Cameron was
Speaker 5: not parking there illegally, I think they should have undone
Speaker 5: the damage.
Speaker 1: What's going on? Bow you're at the scene, Look.
Speaker 28: I'm here. I went and looked at the cars. There's
Speaker 28: no signage stating that they could be towed or booted.
Speaker 28: So we went in and talked to the manager. I'm
Speaker 28: hitting in the lobby as this spyglass apartment building right now.
Speaker 5: I talked to there's no warning signs, then they're screwed.
Speaker 1: If there's no warning signs, they're screwed.
Speaker 28: So the manager of Zidas, he's here now. He told
Speaker 28: me that we needed to call Metro Parking management to
Speaker 28: get the boots removed. So the ten camera did call them,
Speaker 28: and I'm getting that god damn run around because they
Speaker 28: said no, it's up to the apartment building management.
Speaker 1: Well, the apartment one is the one. Listen.
Speaker 5: Why the hell let me ask the apartment I mean,
Speaker 5: where do they get off doing this with no signage?
Speaker 11: Did you ask him that absolutely.
Speaker 28: In fact, I'm sitting here in his lobby and he's
Speaker 28: just called he called the police army and he is
Speaker 28: to give me a trust.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, hey, bo, Bo.
Speaker 28: Did you let the bow?
Speaker 16: So you're just scam. It's a scam.
Speaker 28: They're scamming these people.
Speaker 1: Okay, listen, do me a favor.
Speaker 15: Bo.
Speaker 5: Though, if they do ask you to leave, it is
Speaker 5: private property. Okay, so you can leave. I mean that's fine,
Speaker 5: But you know what best place is a scam?
Speaker 22: They don't.
Speaker 28: Bo.
Speaker 1: Wait a minute, Bo, I want you to take pictures
Speaker 1: of the of the.
Speaker 5: Areas to show there, to show there are no signs,
Speaker 5: no warning signs like.
Speaker 28: Putting the batarmy legally. And then I think the management
Speaker 28: company must be getting some sort of kickback to something,
Speaker 28: because the parking company says the management has full of control,
Speaker 28: and this manager here says no, it's the parking company.
Speaker 28: So they're just giving us to tell you.
Speaker 5: So, what's the phone number at that place? I'd like
Speaker 5: to give the phone number out at that place so
Speaker 5: they can get some live customer reviews.
Speaker 28: Well yeah, okay, the phone number for the spy glass
Speaker 28: spy Glass apartment, and anyway, their address is at seventy
Speaker 28: one hundred East Mississippi. Okay, the phone number is I've
Speaker 28: never been treated so bad, and my wife this is
Speaker 28: I'm sorry. You just get up check. The phone number
Speaker 28: is three oh three seven five to three nine zero
Speaker 28: eight zero. I can't believe they called Denver Police company
Speaker 28: just for trying to get get this result.
Speaker 5: Yeah, well you tell him we're trying. You tell Denver
Speaker 5: police for trying to help a veteran. So Bo went
Speaker 5: to spy glass apartments.

Speaker 4: Come Max is the Troubleshooter Show.
Speaker 5: No Tom Martino, Hi, Tom Martino here. I want to
Speaker 5: tell you what's going on right now. Deputy Bow is
Speaker 5: at the scene and cops are coming because, uh, Spyglass
Speaker 5: Apartments called the cops.
Speaker 1: Let me tell you what jerks these people are.
Speaker 5: Okay, Cameron, a veteran from Texas served as country in
Speaker 5: the US Army, comes to Denver because this is his hometown.
Speaker 1: He wants to come back home.
Speaker 5: He rents an apartment, rents it and signs a lease
Speaker 5: with spy Glass Creek Apartments on seventy one hundred East, Mississippi.
Speaker 5: He signs a lease and they say we can't get
Speaker 5: you parking stickers yet because of your out of state plate.
Speaker 5: So he parks outside of his apartment and he's booted,
Speaker 5: and now it's going to cost him three hundred bucks
Speaker 5: to get the boot off. This is a veteran who
Speaker 5: signed a lease with these people. He's obviously not some
Speaker 5: scofflaw off the street. Once they realize the mistake, shouldn't
Speaker 5: they just take the boot off?
Speaker 1: But they won't.
Speaker 5: Spy Glass Creek Apartment says, we can't do it. It's
Speaker 5: up to the parking place. The parking place as we
Speaker 5: can't do it.
Speaker 1: It's up to.
Speaker 5: Spy Glass and Deputy Bow has been getting that story
Speaker 5: back and forth and back and forth. What what does
Speaker 5: it mean? Here's what it means. Spy Glass Apartments and
Speaker 5: the Toe company are so greedy that they want that
Speaker 5: three hundred dollars so badly that they're willing to charge
Speaker 5: their own tenant three hundred dollars for illegally parking when
Speaker 5: he wasn't illegally parking. So here's this veteran trying to
Speaker 5: make a life in Denver charged three hundred dollars from
Speaker 5: his new apartment complex. Deputy Bow goes down there to
Speaker 5: try to help.
Speaker 1: What does spy Glass.
Speaker 5: Do do they talk to us about this situation. No,
Speaker 5: they call the police. So now Deputy Bow is there
Speaker 5: and they called the police as if Deputy Bow is
Speaker 5: doing something wrong. You people are scum bags, that's what
Speaker 5: you are.
Speaker 1: Scum bags. Spy Glass apartments.
Speaker 5: Your scum scum for treating veterans this way, and your
Speaker 5: scum for having your towing scam because we can't even
Speaker 5: find any warning signs you're supposed to have posted on
Speaker 5: your property. If people want to let Spyglass know what
Speaker 5: they think of him, you can call them at three
Speaker 5: ozho three seven five three ninety eighty seven five three
Speaker 5: ninety eighty.
Speaker 1: You're all scum sucking pigs.
Speaker 5: Now is Bo on the phone, Well, I just go ahead.
Speaker 27: Hi, Tom, this is de Pudd So Bo just called
Speaker 27: me and he said that the police are arriving and
Speaker 27: they brought a fire truck.
Speaker 1: They bought a fire truck.
Speaker 20: The firetruck arrived also for what.
Speaker 27: Well, I don't think we know yet, but but I
Speaker 27: can't wait to see how this develops, and if I
Speaker 27: can get Joela's ros phone number in case I have
Speaker 27: to go.
Speaker 1: Bail aside of jail good one cool three three four
Speaker 1: two nine sixteen hundred.
Speaker 5: No Bo shouldn't get himself in trouble if they want
Speaker 5: him to leave this private property. But I'm smarter than that.
Speaker 5: He's not going to get himself arrested. There's nothing to
Speaker 5: get arrested about. Or we're just trying to help. We're
Speaker 5: just trying to help this veteran. Hey, Walter, let's switch
Speaker 5: gears here. You have a question, Go ahead, Walter.
Speaker 31: Yeah, I'm talking about this. Everybody and their brothers jumped
Speaker 31: on this thing for relief and joint pain.
Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, do you want to know something. I'm going
Speaker 5: to tell you the truth. Relief factor it's nothing more
Speaker 5: than a powerful ben Gay. Relief factor gives you some relief, just.
Speaker 1: Like anything does. It gives some.
Speaker 5: People more relief than some people less relief. It's not
Speaker 5: a miracle drug. It's not a cure. It is absolutely
Speaker 5: not a cure. So that's the real life. Okay. Now,
Speaker 5: I know people are going to be pissed off at
Speaker 5: me for saying that it does give relief. It is soothing,
Speaker 5: there's nothing wrong with the product. But it is not
Speaker 5: a cure for pain. It is absolutely not a cure
Speaker 5: for pain or arthritis. How about that relief relief factor Okay, goodbye,
Speaker 5: Walter Actor. Yeah factor, Yeah, Walter, it is and and
Speaker 5: you might want to trial some hearing as two.
Speaker 1: I'm just kidding around with you, man.
Speaker 5: But Relief Factor. Don't fall for it. I wouldn't go
Speaker 5: get ben gay. I mean, look at look at Okay,
Speaker 5: it might be a.
Speaker 1: Little better than that.
Speaker 5: I don't want to diss everybody who likes Relief Factor,
Speaker 5: but but truly, truly, in my opinion, it's it's the
Speaker 5: epitome of exaggeration. There is no joint compound that you
Speaker 5: can externally apply that's going to cure your problem. Al
Speaker 5: you want to talk about a break issue.
Speaker 1: What's going on?
Speaker 28: Yes, sure, I'm a long time listener and I appreciated
Speaker 28: everything you.
Speaker 16: Guys do, all your staff, thank you.
Speaker 28: But well, I got a quick question now.
Speaker 12: Kind of make it just fast and possible.
Speaker 19: Okay.
Speaker 28: Fifty f two fifty two thousand and five, two fifty.
Speaker 26: Forward truck and he put new brakes on it, new calipers,
Speaker 26: and you know, rollers uh, he's trying to bleed the
Speaker 26: brakes and I don't know, you get it all pumped up,
Speaker 26: everything's good. In about twenty seconds that goes down to
Speaker 26: the floor and bled him and you can't figure it out.
Speaker 26: Is there a check valve in there that could be bad?
Speaker 6: It's not really a check valve. It sounds like it's
Speaker 6: an air problem.
Speaker 1: So what he's there's air infiltration somewhere right now.
Speaker 6: You didn't have this low pedal problem before he did
Speaker 6: the brakes.
Speaker 16: No, everything was okay.
Speaker 26: So just the brakes were, you know, bad.
Speaker 22: So he did the brakes.
Speaker 5: So now he can't get him pumped off basically they're
Speaker 5: not holding pressure.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 6: Yeah, So he says, it pumps up until you bleed
Speaker 6: it or let go, and then if it's right back
Speaker 6: on the floor again, Yeah, it's got to still out
Speaker 6: of air in it somewhere.
Speaker 16: Yeah, you got any idea. We can't see no.
Speaker 6: Leaks, sure, but you just gotta Did he do anything
Speaker 6: with the master cylinder?
Speaker 18: I don't think so.
Speaker 6: Okay, So it.
Speaker 1: Is it hard to bleed breaks? Is that a science?
Speaker 6: It's it's really not. I mean, you start from the
Speaker 6: furthest wheel away from the master cylinder, and do you.
Speaker 1: Do it from the bottom up right?
Speaker 6: Yeah? Yeah, So you start at the pasture side, rear
Speaker 6: driver's side, rear pasture side.
Speaker 1: But you go from the caliber up.
Speaker 6: Yes, yeah, so as long as it's installed properly. I
Speaker 6: mean I've seen guys put the calipers on the wrong
Speaker 6: side and the bleeder maybe on the bottom, then the
Speaker 6: top or something. I don't you know. So you gotta
Speaker 6: re you got to go backwards through and see what
Speaker 6: it was done, because obviously the problem wasn't there. You
Speaker 6: created the problem. So go backwards through the job and
Speaker 6: just check everything.
Speaker 5: I mean, there's really Look, there's really no reason why
Speaker 5: that that that the master cylinder won't keep pressure there
Speaker 5: unless it's leaking.
Speaker 6: Obviously, unless it has a yeah, because if you can
Speaker 6: pump it up, that means it has the air. Yeah, yeah, exactly,
Speaker 6: but it.
Speaker 1: Should hold steady.
Speaker 5: Yes, So if there's an air pocket, let's say an
Speaker 5: air pocket, he is not the same as a leak.
Speaker 1: It wouldn't be the same as the leak.
Speaker 6: No, it would just be you know, it would be
Speaker 6: plunge here.
Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, right now, why don't you just get it?
Speaker 5: Why doesn't he just have somebody look at it.
Speaker 21: That's what I told him, because I was sick of
Speaker 21: doing We did it.
Speaker 28: My leg.
Speaker 5: I know it, man, those are pains in the butt.
Speaker 5: At least you don't have ice, cold weather. But you know,
Speaker 5: here's the thing.
Speaker 1: It's Kevin.
Speaker 5: That's not something you can easily just eyeball though, is
Speaker 5: it typically not?
Speaker 6: I mean, but it doesn't sound like a big prize,
Speaker 6: like he's got all new parks. I mean, it shouldn't
Speaker 6: be a big deal.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm sorry, Al, but it's you know, air air
Speaker 5: infiltration can be anywhere, yep.
Speaker 1: All right now, Mary.
Speaker 5: Has a suggestion for Cameron, the veteran who went to
Speaker 5: Spyglass rented an apartment and his car.
Speaker 1: Was booted even though he was a legal resident there. Mary,
Speaker 1: what's your suggestion.
Speaker 29: My suggestion is we do a gofund me and raise
Speaker 29: enough money so he can.
Speaker 14: Break his lease, pay whatever fine, and get a moving truck.
Speaker 12: And get him the hell out of there.
Speaker 5: I wish we could find him a good place. That
Speaker 5: would be a good idea. Mary and I might consider
Speaker 5: that right now, though these people are being stubborn. All
Speaker 5: they have to do at Spyglasses say you know, let
Speaker 5: us car go. That's all they have to do, but
Speaker 5: they won't do it because they're money grubbing pigs.
Speaker 1: In my opinion, I can't believe.
Speaker 5: They would call police on a guy who's trying to
Speaker 5: help a veteran instead of just trying to help the veteran.

Speaker 24: Thank you, Thank you. I was listening to just a
Speaker 24: couple of minutes ago. It's good to hear the jury.
Speaker 24: You're passionate about helping veterans. I'm a veteran myself. What
Speaker 24: brings me to you today is I was actually referred
Speaker 24: to you by another law office. I'm trying to see you.
Speaker 24: I have grounds for maybe harassment against Westlake Financial Services.
Speaker 24: I get calls before.
Speaker 1: Okay, well, tell me the story. Tell me the story.
Speaker 24: Well, I bought a vehicle a while back. I was
Speaker 24: in a really hot spot, needed something quick, and went
Speaker 24: for it. You know, I took a pretty big interest
Speaker 24: rate top of my head, I don't remember it right now,
Speaker 24: and then fell on harder times.
Speaker 1: Life exploded.
Speaker 5: But wait a minute, Zack, Zach, Zach, Zach, Zach, wait, Zach,
Speaker 5: hold on?
Speaker 1: Where did you buy? Where'd you finance this car?
Speaker 28: Well?
Speaker 16: I purchased it.
Speaker 24: From a place called fifty two eighty Auto in Longmont Coulery.
Speaker 1: Where did you finance? He never said that.
Speaker 5: He said there's harassing him, but he didn't say it
Speaker 5: was about a car deal. Is Wesley Financial the one
Speaker 5: you financed the car through, Yes, sir, Okay, go ahead.
Speaker 1: So what happen.
Speaker 24: Even you know, hours after missing a payment? And I
Speaker 24: do understand, you know, they're owed their money. I signed
Speaker 24: a contract, but hours after missing a payment, I'm getting calls.
Speaker 24: I'll get six eight calls. A day, sometimes before eight am,
Speaker 24: sometimes after nine pm when I'm putting my three year
Speaker 24: old daughter down for bet. When I do get on
Speaker 24: the phone, people are condescending. I've been hung up on
Speaker 24: and they kind of make it tough to get a
Speaker 24: hold of them to work if deal to get them
Speaker 24: their money. They've gone as far as even actually not
Speaker 24: taking a payment. When they said that they would take
Speaker 24: my money, they were late, not all the money was there,
Speaker 24: and then I had to pay the late fees. Even
Speaker 24: after telling them not to take the late fees out
Speaker 24: of my account, they still took the money. And I'm
Speaker 24: trying to see if I have any sort of grounds
Speaker 24: for okay, possibly hurt.
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm going to tell you.
Speaker 5: I'm going to tell you why other law offices referred
Speaker 5: you to us. Okay, because we deal in the gray area.
Speaker 5: Other law firms they deal in the black and white area. Now,
Speaker 5: let me explain this to you. Under the terms of
Speaker 5: your agreement, and they're on and they're they're exactly like
Speaker 5: most Uniform Commercial Code agreements for financing a car security agreement.
Speaker 22: They have the.
Speaker 5: Right to do normal collection activities and all of that crap.
Speaker 5: Once they've established a business relationship with you. They can't
Speaker 5: out of the blue start calling you. But if you
Speaker 5: sign the application, Somewhere in there you said it was
Speaker 5: okay for them to contact you.
Speaker 1: So let's talk about this.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a pain in the ass if you if
Speaker 5: you fall on hard times or you're laid on a payment,
Speaker 5: there's nothing worse than getting six to eight phone calls
Speaker 5: to remind you of that. I get what you're saying.
Speaker 5: But they are allowed to do it, so it's not harassment.
Speaker 5: Harassment would be if they really, if they really get
Speaker 5: angry and stupid and start start insulting you, and and
Speaker 5: and do things illegally. I don't think there's I think
Speaker 5: Wesley Financial is smart enough not to do that. But
Speaker 5: what I want to ask something When you said make
Speaker 5: arrangements to get them their money, you don't have to
Speaker 5: ever make arrangements to get people their money. You have
Speaker 5: a loan, you make a payment. Why was this different?
Speaker 24: Well, I had deferred a payment to the end of
Speaker 24: the loan once upon a time, and then you know,
Speaker 24: the next month, I think I was a day or
Speaker 24: two late, and so I made an arrangement with them,
Speaker 24: And so.
Speaker 5: You did have a deferment you have, You've already extended some.
Speaker 1: Of your payments to the back end of the loan.
Speaker 1: Was that during COVID?
Speaker 24: Actually no, it was just after.
Speaker 5: Okay, and so how many let me ask you something?
Speaker 5: Is your loan up to day?
Speaker 1: Right now?
Speaker 24: Right now? The last payment was the sixteenth, and I'm
Speaker 24: going to be able to pay it next week as
Speaker 24: far as they know which actually, and.
Speaker 5: It was due a wait, So your payment that was due,
Speaker 5: your payment that was due on March sixteenth has not
Speaker 5: been made yet.
Speaker 24: Correct. And I did make I put some money down
Speaker 24: basically everything I had at the time, in good.
Speaker 12: Faith, and I do have money, and man, I try.
Speaker 16: To make it right.
Speaker 5: Are you having a tough time keeping up with these payments?
Speaker 24: I am. I'm a single dad, a veteran, and my availability,
Speaker 24: unfortunately is ten days a month. I'm a plumber and
Speaker 24: hvat guy by trade, so I try to pick up
Speaker 24: work on days where I can make a few hundred
Speaker 24: in a day, and so far that's what I've got.
Speaker 5: Hey, Zach, when you say you're a single dad, do
Speaker 5: your kids live with you or your child?
Speaker 16: Yes?
Speaker 24: I started that fight for fifty to fifty custody. So
Speaker 24: she's with me half of the half of the time.
Speaker 5: Okay, so you have a child with you half the time,
Speaker 5: and what about HVAC. You should be able to make
Speaker 5: a lot of money. Why are you not working full time?
Speaker 5: What's the reason?
Speaker 24: Well, the availability from the custody arrangement leaves me with
Speaker 24: ten days a month. Reason being is childcare is ridiculously expensive.
Speaker 24: It's about as expensive as rent a month, so as no.
Speaker 1: I know, articulous.
Speaker 5: So you were caught between a rock and a hard
Speaker 5: place because you wanted to see your child.
Speaker 1: But at the same time, you have to work.
Speaker 24: Exactly And if I were to go and get a
Speaker 24: nine to five and do this full time, I'd have
Speaker 24: to pay for child care, which when I add up
Speaker 24: the numbers of that and rent and other bills. Somehow
Speaker 24: getting a full time job puts me in debt.
Speaker 1: How much is your payment a month on your car?
Speaker 24: Two hundred and sixty eight dollars and I believe sixty
Speaker 24: four cents?
Speaker 1: And is the car worth of dam.
Speaker 24: I really wanted it to be.
Speaker 18: I purchased it for.
Speaker 24: Ten grand, scratched up, dinged up. They loved it up
Speaker 24: real well for the test drive, so there wasn't any
Speaker 24: squeaks for that that stint, you know, pitted windshield, the
Speaker 24: whole thing. Honestly, the vehicle was not worth ten thousand dollars.
Speaker 5: To begin what well, what what did you buy? What
Speaker 5: did you buy? What did you buy for ten grand?
Speaker 24: Twenty sixteen Jeep Patriot?
Speaker 5: Okay, well, twenty sixteen Jeep Patriot?
Speaker 1: How many miles?
Speaker 24: Oh, shoot, off the top of my head, I don't remember.
Speaker 24: I want to say it had almost two hundred thousand.
Speaker 24: I'd been through a number of the oh.
Speaker 5: My god, well it's shot if it had two hundred thousand.
Speaker 24: Yeah, And unfortunately, you know, it was a place where
Speaker 24: if I didn't have a vehicle, it would it would
Speaker 24: affect my customer. So I took what I could.
Speaker 5: So how long you've been paying on this thing? And
Speaker 5: you bought it for ten grand?
Speaker 19: Yes, sir?
Speaker 1: And you have over two hundred thousand miles on it?
Speaker 24: Yes, I believe that's what it was when I got it.
Speaker 1: So now you have way more than that on it.
Speaker 24: Yes, And I try not to put too many more
Speaker 24: if I can, if I can save it.
Speaker 5: So, Zach, are you calling because you're just pissed off
Speaker 5: at this finance company bugging you.
Speaker 24: I mean, obviously that's part of it. There's a lot
Speaker 24: of irritation there, and I feel like they're a really
Speaker 24: shady company. They make it difficult sometimes to get them
Speaker 24: their money. So it's almost like their goal is to
Speaker 24: repossess that vehicle and keep the money you get.
Speaker 5: I doubt no, No, trust me when I tell you. Please,
Speaker 5: trust me when I tell you they do you not
Speaker 5: want a twenty sixteen g Patriot with two hundred thousand
Speaker 5: miles on it? They're not trying to repossess that car.
Speaker 5: They just want to be paid.
Speaker 1: How much? What is the balance on your loan right now?
Speaker 1: What's the balance?
Speaker 24: Without without looking at it, I believe I have between
Speaker 24: six and seven thousand more dollars on it?
Speaker 1: What all right?
Speaker 5: Listen, I think personally, Zach, that you probably are not
Speaker 5: maximizing your income potential.
Speaker 1: I really mean that.
Speaker 24: I would have to agree with you. I've got to
Speaker 24: get creative here. I da helping me trying to find.
Speaker 18: Avenue for that.
Speaker 1: No, seriously, if you if you really do know HVAC, do.
Speaker 24: You, yes, I've been doing it for seven years. That
Speaker 24: and I dabble in the dark arths.
Speaker 5: Well then Zach, Zach, I think you could make arrangements
Speaker 5: and even with paying for childcare during those ten days,
Speaker 5: just part of the time, part of the day. I think,
Speaker 5: I think you'll be money ahead day. I don't know
Speaker 5: where you're checking, but they pay really, really, really well.
Speaker 5: And if you leave your information and a resume with
Speaker 5: me with Kaschina, I'll see to it that some of
Speaker 5: the best companies in Denver get that resume.
Speaker 24: Okay, that would be phenomenal.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'd like to see you make more money and
Speaker 5: then enjoy your little girl and also be able to
Speaker 5: make your payments. And I think if you have a
Speaker 5: skill like that, it's going to waste. So hang on, Kaschina,

Speaker 5: nine two zero sixteen twenty two. Hi Tom Martine here
Speaker 5: three oh three seven one three talk three oh three
Speaker 5: seven one three eight two five five. We have Kevin
Speaker 5: with us from Sheridan Auto Tech. We're getting some car calls,
Speaker 5: but a lot of texts. I'll get to in a minute.
Speaker 1: Here. So I'm wondering what's happening to Bow over there?
Speaker 1: We're just at the apartment complex. I'm a little nervous.
Speaker 5: I mean, if he went over there and they called
Speaker 5: the cops on him, I wonder what's going on. Anyway,
Speaker 5: Let's talk to Chris meanwhile, and then we'll we'll try
Speaker 5: to get a hold of Bow on his cell phone.
Speaker 1: Chris, what's going on?
Speaker 16: All right? I have a two thousand and nine Volkswagen Eos,
Speaker 16: one of little convertos wolves with the two liter turbo,
Speaker 16: and I have a in the third cylinder. I've tried
Speaker 16: changing the spark plugs.
Speaker 5: How do you know it's in the third cylinder? How
Speaker 5: do you know where the misfire is?
Speaker 16: When I plug it in that scanner, it tells me
Speaker 16: it's a I think a three.
Speaker 1: Okay, yep, all right, did.
Speaker 6: You try swapping coils from one like number four to
Speaker 6: number three.
Speaker 16: Yes, I did do that that in the plugs and
Speaker 16: the myst didn't move.
Speaker 8: Right.
Speaker 16: Stayed with that. It's like in a lag.
Speaker 6: Do you know if you have spark at number three?
Speaker 1: Do you know? Do you know if you have spark
Speaker 1: in number three.
Speaker 16: That I haven't verified by leaving the plug out? To
Speaker 16: see that?
Speaker 6: Well, just take take one of your old spark plugs.
Speaker 6: I understand, but just take one of your old spark plugs.
Speaker 6: Put it in the in the end. You know, when
Speaker 6: you can, you don't have to pull the other spark
Speaker 6: plug out of the motor.
Speaker 1: Oh, I see, yeah, and just look at use one.
Speaker 6: Of the old ones. Do you say?
Speaker 1: That's a good idea?
Speaker 5: Sure, and you see if it's sparking exactly. So, if
Speaker 5: it's sparking, then on.
Speaker 6: Well then you look towards the injector possibly.
Speaker 5: So this diagnostic doesn't tell you whether it's the injector.
Speaker 6: Or the No, it tells you the cylinder that the
Speaker 6: mysfire is, but not what is causing the mysfire. No,
Speaker 6: but that's the next step I would do, is verify
Speaker 6: for sure that you have spark. I'm sorry, is this the.
Speaker 16: Same thing a garage would do, or would they have
Speaker 16: a better scanner that would nail it down further.
Speaker 6: Well, we use a spark plug tester, which is just
Speaker 6: basically it's not magic.
Speaker 5: I mean, either it has spark or not. But lear,
Speaker 5: here's where you're going to have a problem. If it
Speaker 5: does have spark, now you're going to have to do
Speaker 5: a level of testing you may not be qualified for.
Speaker 1: If it doesn't have spark, what does that tell him?
Speaker 6: Well, then there could be trouble within the modules or
Speaker 6: something that's that's feeding the coil.
Speaker 5: So either way, he really this is going to go
Speaker 5: beyond do it at home probably, so Chris, you might
Speaker 5: want to just bring it into Kevin. Kevin, let me
Speaker 5: ask you something for something this simple a misfire, I
Speaker 5: don't mean miss simple to fix or to find, but
Speaker 5: but really, what what would it cost him at your place?
Speaker 6: You know, any anywhere you know, diagnostic starts, you know,
Speaker 6: and a half an hour, which is about a hundred
Speaker 6: bucks up. It's you know, if it's if don't you.
Speaker 1: Do don't you do a certain amount of diagnostics sperience?
Speaker 6: I mean we can quick quick look.
Speaker 1: It's the quick look drive by.
Speaker 6: And see if it if it's something real, real, obvious,
Speaker 6: and then we don't charge for that. But if we
Speaker 6: have to dig in, start checking homes and different measurements
Speaker 6: around the car, then we to start charging.
Speaker 1: But Chris, you know our missfires. Oh you're in the springs.
Speaker 5: Yes, honest accurate auto, really good people, honest accurate auto.
Speaker 5: And you tell him we told you that to go there,
Speaker 5: and uh, they're great people. Three oh three seven one
Speaker 5: three talk seven one three two five five anybody here
Speaker 5: from Bow by the way that let's.
Speaker 20: See d Yeah. I just texted him.
Speaker 27: I asked him if he's in jail yet, and he
Speaker 27: responded and said, what saying that yet? But that was
Speaker 27: kind of unnecessary because if he were in jail, he
Speaker 27: wouldn't be texting yet.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 5: But here's the deal for those listening. We have a
Speaker 5: guy named Cameron who called the show. He's a veteran,
Speaker 5: just got out of the army in Texas, wants to
Speaker 5: move back home to Colorado. He comes to Colorado and
Speaker 5: he signs a lead with Spyglass Creek Apartments. He signs
Speaker 5: a lease. Okay, he says, I need the parking passes.
Speaker 5: According to him, the woman says I can't do the parking.
Speaker 1: Pass right now. I don't know how to do them.
Speaker 5: He had Texas plates and she wasn't sure what to
Speaker 5: do because normally they deal with Colorado plates.
Speaker 22: Hey, Tom, I've got buds, so I've got bus.
Speaker 1: Okay. So he parked his car.
Speaker 5: Okay, good, good, Hold on, he parked his car and
Speaker 5: it was Toad one day out.
Speaker 1: From out No, no excuse me, they weren't told.
Speaker 5: They were both booted out in front of his apartment
Speaker 5: and it cost him three hundred bucks to get it removed.
Speaker 1: And he thought that was unfair. He has a lease.
Speaker 5: You can see it was clearly signed before they booted
Speaker 5: his car, So why would they boot his car by mistake?
Speaker 1: Okay? But now that they know he's not.
Speaker 5: Some scofflaw off the street, why wouldn't they just take
Speaker 5: it off? Well, Bo went down to the apartment to
Speaker 5: call to ask him that, and they called the cops
Speaker 5: on him. Instead of trying to help this veteran, they
Speaker 5: scaled it up a notch and called the cops.
Speaker 1: Now, now tell me why the hell they would do that.
Speaker 1: I don't know. But anyway, but where does this stand
Speaker 1: right now?
Speaker 19: Okay? I? Uh, you know the fire department and the
Speaker 19: cops dead arrive. So I went up to him and
Speaker 19: I said, okay, I'm here to state my case. And
Speaker 19: they said wait because there's a fire. So they put
Speaker 19: the fire out here. So I went up to him
Speaker 19: and I said, well you must, let's talk for the
Speaker 19: trust passing it. You're not here, You're not even in
Speaker 19: our call log. This is low priority. We're not interested.
Speaker 19: But they okay, but no, I did ask him. They
Speaker 19: said they are responding here soon. But I've been waiting.
Speaker 19: But I'm waiting outside the lobby area because there is
Speaker 19: a no trust passing time. But I'm here as a
Speaker 19: guest of Cameron to try to get this parking boot
Speaker 19: issue resolved. Four or five hundred apartment building, Tom, I
Speaker 19: see three or four boots on cars, hey bo?
Speaker 5: Both and here wait, wait before you say anything, boot Bo.
Speaker 5: When you say you say three or four boots on cars,
Speaker 5: are there signs near those cars?
Speaker 1: Any warning signs at all?
Speaker 19: I can't see a sign anywhere other than a place
Speaker 19: where you're supposed to place your trash. And for handicap parking.
Speaker 6: Hey Bo, Yes, do you have a credit card with you?
Speaker 19: Yes?
Speaker 31: Okay?

Speaker 19: I said, I'm not causing any ways, So I just
Speaker 19: want to see if we can come to a resolution.

Speaker 19: just pay for one and get the other way in.
Speaker 19: I'll get them both knocked up it you know, there's
Speaker 19: no signage, and they were totally in the wrong by
Speaker 19: not giving Cameron his parking path because he had out
Speaker 19: of ski.

Speaker 29: of course we got a bad rep you know, and
Speaker 29: do to waltz towing of it. Yes, but we obliged
Speaker 29: by the rules of the puc Okay, and right now,
Speaker 29: that booting that's going on right there is totally illegal.
Speaker 29: They cannot boot that man's car because, first of all,
Speaker 29: he's a resident there, he lives there. Second, of all,
Speaker 29: they have to have posted signs coming into the property
Speaker 29: and all around the property saying that if you don't
