jsmoke222000 Posted January 16, 2007 Report Share Posted January 16, 2007 Man, I just thought about this. It would be cool to share stories about the crazy shit people say after you work on their car and something goes wrong. I think the most common is "I think I've got a loose wire".

jsmoke222000 Posted January 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2007 I had a guy bring his car in and I installed a Yellow top Battery, Alt, amps, subs & a deck. It was a acura integra. I noticed when I was under the hood that it had a new motor in it. It was an H22 out of a prelude. Anyway, dude calls me up an hour after he left my shop and said I broke his A.C. I told him to bring it back up to the shop so I could look at it. Well it turns out that he just bought the car and didn't know that the A.C. had been removed to make room for the new motor! He just thought it was broken and was gonna have me do work under the hood and blame it on me. When I explained to him that he didn't even have A.C. he got pissed and hauled ass! I'll never forget that shit. Quote Jared Nixon A.K.A.

Forevrbumpn Posted January 16, 2007 Report Share Posted January 16, 2007 back in like 99'-00' I did a very simple deck install in a Toyota something. it was Iso din mounting, but very simple. Just the basic 2 plug harness, installed it, and she was gone, easy, no problems, and car was clean, and relatively new. 2 weeks later, I hear her dash caught on fire, and the people at the auto shop who have worked on the car pretty often, because it was a salvaged car ( not that I knew it was) Said whoever installed the deck pluged the stereo plugs in to the ac unit....... Okayyyy I assume it was just cause it was salvaged, and the mechanics putting everything back together in the car kinked some wires, or somethin was never replaced, when it should have been..... The fire started when she went to turn her AC on..... and poof....... wasnt me :w00t: Quote I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the thing is, the shop/I was blamed for it, and had to go thru the whole deal, had to prove it wasnt the shop- which it wasnt Quote I have a ritual called "terminator".
