- Broken EVs Head Straight to Junkyards As Repair Costs Are Unbearable! EV makers have been promising all kinds of things, including low maintenance costs, easy repairs, and even battery swaps. But so far, things have been quite the opposite, considering that electric cars are not just less reliable but also cost a fortune to get fixed. Things went to the point where broken EVs head directly for junkyards, while EV cars were once hailed as the future of transportation. Exorbitant repair costs that are leaving owners with no choice but to scrap their vehicles. Join us as we delve into the dark side of the EV industry and expose the secrets that manufacturers don't want you to know. From faulty batteries to costly software updates, we'll show you why the EV dream of sustainable transportation is turning into a nightmare for many.

😊 Hey guys! We created the Chase Car channel to give viewers a broad overview of the upcoming new cars from the top car manufacturers. We are huge fans of pickup trucks of all sizes: compact, mid-size and full-size trucks. So mostly, we will cover new upcoming trucks, but besides that, here you can find a lot of content about new sedans and SUVs too.
The Electric Vehicle wave sooner or later will become huge, so this type of content might appear on this channel from time to time. But as we are still on the way to becoming fully electrical, we mostly cover fossil cars from many amazing brands.

🔴Are EVs UNRELIABLE? 🤔
🏆IT STARTED! The EV Market Is WAY WORSE Than We Thought WATCH HERE 👉ruclips.net/video/Q9t4fcRbevM/видео.html
watch what you need for one battery:
Lithium brines contain about 0.14% lithium, so it takes about 20,000 pounds of brines to yield 30 pounds of pure lithium.
Cobalt with an ore grade of ~0.1% means approximately 60,000 pounds of ore will be excavated per battery[e]
Nickel with a content of approximately 1.3% represents approximately 10,000 pounds of ore[f]
Graphite at ~10% results in 2,000 pounds of ore[g]
Copper at ~0.6% yields approximately 12,000 pounds of ore[h]
These five elements add up to about 100,000 pounds of ore to make an electric vehicle battery.
I think they are but not batteries.
@@Eduardo_Espinoza yes, accumulators! but most call it battery

Body shop technician here, our shop will NOT leave an EV in the shop overnight. One of our estimators came to work early and found the shop filling with smoke from a damaged EV. The car combusted an hour later. Our guy literally saved all our jobs and the facility.
Can we park that car in my building please?
We stopped accepting them all together at our shop.
People that live in connected structures (town houses) with garages and that have virtue signaling neighbors that drive these fire traps are being endangered by virtue signaling fools.
Just refuse to work om them and it will all come to an end. A lot of dealerships will have nothing to do with them.
@@BulletSpoung yeah, we don’t get that choice. Our shop is part of an auto group and of course they sell EV’s. But the estimators are getting better at totaling the cars. About 9 in 10 is about the average. If anything touches the battery compartment put a fork in it.

@@edbenti5007 A knowledgeable corrupt government is worse than ignorant corruption. Ignorant corrupt people would inevitably accidentally do things that did not result in maximum evil.
Like, if our government didn't KNOW that EVs are a scam that are worse for the environment, and will definitely destroy the automotive industry, how would they KNOW enforcing EVs would help them implement the great reset? If our government was corrupt, but ignorant that EVs were the most evil option, then they might still be promoting fossil fuel.
This is what happens when the Gov. Pushes EVs instead of the economy growing EVs. What a GIANT waste of money.

Back in horse and buggy days gas car owners had to fix their own rig’s . Ford even gave them directions in the Model T owner’s manual on how to do things like a valve job.
Find that level of instruction on a Tesla. You won’t. Of course that’s true of modern gas cars too, but there’s a lot of experienced mechanics for those cars.
Not for EVs.
For example: JOEs motorcade of 40 - 50 vehicles, does not include a single EV...

@@pikaskew OK - that explains Joe s frequent falls
They all have an electric starter - - there's electricity in every room of your house !! It's the batteries that's the problem. Back to Lead-Acid.
I'm a 50 year electronics tech. When they first told everyone that EV's are "simpler and more reliable" I nearly died laughing! Electronics are the bane of cars, and EV's take it to a whole new level. Plus the computers and modules will be rendered "obsolete" in short order to FORCE you to upgrade. Simple is actually better if you BUY something instead of LEASING it. EV's are designed to be lease boxes. If you like a lifetime of renting things, this is for you! 👍
I would rather lease on of these things than buy them at this point, as I wouldn't have to pay for all the crap that's going to happen to it as I attempt day-to-day activities.
You will own nothing and be happy. I'm sure you follow Louis Rossman
@@glytchdoh , he said that?
But who wants to buy a second-hand EV? Rental companies can only make money if they can sell the old ones. Here in the UK a guy who bought a 2-year old EV for £40,000 with a supposed 150-mile range and was only getting 100 miles, is filing a lawsuit. This is just the beginning. EVs are finished. @Runco990
@@glytchd I do indeed! 👍
Spending billion$ on EV charging when enough "ICE charging" (aka gas stations) already exist. Goverments sure know how to waste taxpayers' money . . . . and enforce control.
That's the thing this is our government, They Work FOR US Not the other way around, we gotta Stand Up To Them I would put all those Junk Teslas on the WhiteHouse Lawn LOL
And this is problematic too...EV's are really meant to be charged overnight over the course of hours. This is the business proposition to owning/leasing one. You charge it up while you're sleeping and you won't ever have to visit a "gas station" again. But there's a problem with that...this cuts gas stations out of the loop. Sure, they could add some charging stations and charge for their use, but if people are going to be charging them at home 90% of the time, that means they'll only get 10% of all car traffic (assuming they are the only ones in town). So gas stations providing EV charging stations will never be cost-effective for them or generate a profit because everyone is charging at home. This also causes another problem, it means whoever provides your electricity has a monopoly and they can now charge you whatever they want! Yup...no more putting enough gas in your car to get you through until payday. Nope...you're going to get a bill every month, and if you owe them money they'll just shut you off, leaving you no way to get to work. I have no doubt electricity providers are eagerly lobbying our government to push EV's on a skeptical public.
The biden administration took 7 billion dollars of our taxes to put up EV charging stations across America. Guess how many charging stations they put up? just 7 no thats not a typo!! where did the 7 bullion dollars go? 💸 probably bidens bank account. "10% to the big guy"

That is not what I have found, the maintenance is far cheaper and the cost to operate far lower. More up front but cheaper to run.

They work better in moderate temperature. They don't like too hot or cold.
But why Chicago didn't work when those in Canada were functioning properly?
Because there are a ton more EV's in Chicago with limited charging stations.and waiting to charge in the cold spelled doom@@hbarudi
It's too bad the dopes in Chicago couldn't find the "Precondition" button prior to trying to charge them. Dopes indeed.

How many EVs are actually crashing?
@@luisbraz-ruivo A crapload. Tesla especially, the driver assist treats standing water on the road as solid so they hydroplane like a Bee H.
@luisbraz-ruivo more than they are reporting. Between the 2 shops I'm affiliated with, we have a few and all has become problems between insurance companies not wanting to pay, customers not having an understanding of what they actually bought believing the marketing sales gimmicks, salesmen, and their wanting to believe they made the best purchase as possible. And trying to find technicians that are certified in the required field to argue for the correct repair and correct repair procedures. The correct repair procedures are generally no corners cut, by the book. Which means expensive. So the insurance company would rather write it off than take liability for requesting a substandard repair to save money, knowing these cars has a tendency to show that they are compromised days, weeks or months after repair. That then puts the insurance company, the shop, and even the technician that worked on it in a terrible position. The ones at our shop are sitting alone by their selves with storage liens on them getting ready to go to the scrap yard. Sad thing is 3 of them don't even look that bad. Age and type of accident makes a world of difference and 3 years old is old in that world
Joe Biden doesn't have the right to tell us what we can and cannot drive
Chairman Biden and The Party know what is best for us peasants
But , the UN does . Get it , yet ?
Insurance companies could do us all a favor by refusing to insure this garbage.
The insurance industries are jacking EVERYONE's rates up because the Republicans have succeeding in deregulating the industry, so good luck with that. My rates went up 40% in one increase and I've had zero claims and no accidents. As for garbage. There are no plastic cars built since the 1970s that collectors really want to collect with very few exceptions. ALL modern cars are plastic garbage. When the next oil war in the Middle East happens, I hope you send your boy off to fight for your right to burn fossil fuels...
As I have always said for years: EVs are disposable appliances.
Disposable toys!😅
It is a disposable society. Being old I grew up with small appliance repair shops. Now if it breaks throw it away and it applies to everything cost too much for parts better off buying new.
@@christopherblack4520
My family prospered with a family business fixing TV, Radio and other small appliances! Those were the days when a television cost more than a months wages, a radio a week, a kitchen appliance half a week so they were repaired over and over! Abandoned items to costly to fix were stripped for usable parts and Dad had a friend who would repurpose old TV,Radio cabinets into usable things, appliance cabinets in those days were furniture!

Lack of train professionals is correct. I’m an auto technician that work in a dealership with 18 techs. We only have 4 EV certified technicians, manager asked me to become certified on them but they were not offering us a raise so I refused to work on them.

But the Chevy Bolt EV is a great car and I've driven 2 now and love not having to go to corner gas stations anymore. Had EVs now 4 years and LOVE THEM.
You forgot to mention insanely short tire life. Depending on how you drive and vehicle type, you are looking at tire replacement every 8 to 15k miles
..well the large batteries weigh the same as 15 x one cwt bags of coal. It's a small goods vehicle! (remembering 15cwt vans! )

My brother works in car sales at a Honda dealership and has been in the industry for about 40 years and he was saying to me that people are trading their EVs in and going back to ICE vehicles. He said that the used EVs are a nightmare to service and to try to resell on the used market.
Wonder why Honda is pushing this EV stuff in a failing EV market.
I hear the same thing about SUVs unsold and piling up. Doesn't make me want an SUV.
I have a friend that owns a major body shop in my area. The slightest accident with any EV requires the customer's insurance company to send out a specially trained adjuster to start 'a full investigation' that could take weeks just to get an est. His in house adjusters are NOT ALLOWED to even get near it via the insurance companies' liability clauses. Damaged Evs waiting for repairs must be stored outdoors, batteries disconnected, in a lot 300 yrds away from the shop due to fire hazards. More often than not, if there's ANY evidence that the battery protective frame is damaged in ANY way, the vehicle gets totalled. BTW, if they total the vehicles, he only gets a marginal storage lot fee payout.
really? that's amusing because I had more than a slight shock with my KIA recently and it was all fine and good as new in 3 days
When I wrecked my Model 3, State Farm adjusters were fine. No specially trained adjuster. Maybe if battery damage is involved a specialist would be required.
The current brain dead potus has done more damage to this country in 3 1/2 years than any president in history. FJB
there are no specially trained ev adjusters been doing collision for 28 years they dont hire anyone with automotive skills. there quite a few steps needed to asses ev's and to properly store them . one of my favorite is you need to measure the batt temp for 5 days to make sure its not going to go into thermal overload. they are not that difficult to repair as long as you are trained to do it and have proper ppe.
When an EV is in a collision it's considered a haz-mat response.
The biggest car crash of a policy ever, you only have to look at the losses incurred by Ford and Hertz recently, it cost the CEO of Hertz his job.
I’m 1,000% sure the CEO of Hertz and Elon were in cahoots. That CEO deserves to be in jail and his finances gone through with a fine-toothed comb. I’m pretty sure he lined his pockets with that deal.
Good luck finding a garage or dealership that knows how to diag and repair ANYTHING.

Most normal people don't want to deal with any of this BS. They just want to get in their car and drive. Refueling pretty much anywhere within a matter off minutes. Not charging for hours or being limited on where you can go due to limited charging stations.. Or getting car repaired in a few days or less. Not for weeks at inflated expense.
The WEF cannot stand that mere peons own private cars (or houses, or anything); they've declared that we will "own nothing" and we're getting there fast. Driving is declared to be a privilege (not a right) & insurance is required by law, as taxpayers subsidize rich people who can afford an extra, limited-function toy car. The insane EV repair costs will soon make car insurance too expensive for the Working Class - even though 75% of Americans need a car. Too bad; our Ruling Class says you'll move to a city, to live in a tiny cell & take the cattle car to work 12 hours a day for your ration of insects. The Great Communist Reset is here!

What most people don't realize when we we're getting trained at Ford, we we're told it takes two mechanic's to work on an EV in-case one of the mechanic's get shocked, someone has to be there to remove them from danger, and if you think that's free to have that extra person working on your car your crazy

People have no idea what the long range effect of switching to entirely EV's, especially when lithium batteries are involved. I work with battery powered equipment and there has been a big push to switch from lead-acid to lithium and Absorbed Glass Matting (AGM) technology. It seemed the way to go for a few years but recently the company we use to dispose of old lithium and AGM batteries announced they would no longer take them, as the lithium and other materials could not be recycled. I never knew the lithium could not be used again and makes me wonder what sort of environmental issues we're creating with disposal of these toxic materials.
EVs are not for everyone. Stop pushing them on people who do not want one. Poor people can not come up with thousands to replace a battery. My goodness some poor people have a hard time buying a 200 dollar battery for a regular car.
The government just started a taxpayer funded program to give new Tesla's to illegal invaders!

Not only that, but how about the cost of installing a charger at the home? And if you rent, are you going to pay for a rapid charger to be installed in a rental? What about apartment buildings? Oh, and in cold climates, you really need to store/charge them indoors in a heated garage. And how about the used car market? Poor people often drive older cars because they're cheaper, but there is no options on an EV. If the battery is junk (or goes after they buy a used EV), they're out completely! Not to mention, a lot of poor people have trouble paying their electric bill as it is. Many are putting a few bucks of gas in the tank to hold them over until payday. Hows that going to work with an EV? They're going to show up and shut you off, and now you can't even get to work! Poor and low income families should openly reject the EV craze!
Poor people should reconsider voting for forced electrification
Tesla introduced its first car in 2008, so many electric cars have been made over that 16 years. How many ICE cars in that time are still drivable today? Tens of millions.
Yesterday, I replaced the fan belt on my 1984 K20 4X4. This process took 15 minutes. The belt cost 12 bucks. I also added Oil to it about a quart. Took 5 minutes. I also replaced the front BREAKS on my 1996 Lumina 3.1. Took about 30 minutes. Next, some time today, I get to replace a wheel on my lawnmower. It's amazing how simplified my generation is. A vehicle should get you point A to point B. I can't imagine how and / or why we have "environmental" issues. Gee, I WOUNDER ?
The number of garage fires around the country has increased dramatically in the last 5 years.
Inside EVERY one of those: An EV...
LOL no thanks i will never buy any EV if i have to i will rebuild my ICE cars 100 times.!!! gas only.!!!
ok ok stick with your Ford model T sure... why not
@@zanfr123 battery cars 100 years ago have the same problem as a 2024 BATTERIES
But what will you do if they shut down the gas stations. Although I bet some black market refineries will open up
@@joebrandon1730 no worries, the rotten potato will be gone in november.
Same here
don't forget the environment damage bcz of mining, you need a lot of water to produce Lithium. 2,000 liters of water for 1 kg of lithium!!
Lithium brines contain about 0.14% lithium, so it takes about 20,000 pounds of brines to yield 30 pounds of pure lithium.
Cobalt with an ore grade of ~0.1% means approximately 60,000 pounds of ore will be excavated per battery[e]
Nickel with a content of approximately 1.3% represents approximately 10,000 pounds of ore[f]
Graphite at ~10% results in 2,000 pounds of ore[g]
Copper at ~0.6% yields approximately 12,000 pounds of ore[h]
These five elements add up to about 100,000 pounds of ore to make an electric vehicle battery.
Are you kidding? Fracking requires millions of gallons of water. Petroleum exploration for over 120 years has devastated the planet and. Atrial resources.
Politicians don't think of this at all when they say switching all cars to evs is better for the environment
@@mikehurt3290 we make the same mistake as during the oil boom, the difference is, today we know the consequences!
@@mikehurt3290They know. They don’t actually care about the environment if it doesn’t fit the narrative.
Ooo, do oil next!
Expensive part of our “throw away” society. I see it with the little portable bluetooth speakers…when the battery charge does not last, simply tossed out..
Don't forget charging stations throughout the country are far and few between-and are becoming crime magnets. Sitting in your car waiting for it to be charged-most likely most people will be playing with their phones totally oblivious to the unfamiliar surroundings while the criminals attack. Also finding charging stations when your battery is almost dead causes anxiety. Then when you pull up to the charging station-3 out 5 chargers are broke. Then you have to have the app on your phone that corresponds to the charging company.
Working on EV's must be quite boring not to mention dangerous for mechanics. Not surprising that they're not rushing to get licensed. The likely have to be paid more, which won't help EV repair costs.
There is no great risk of shock when the tech is following the best practice. But, otherwise the condition of the battery is opaque - vehicle owners can't see inside the battery.
it is insanely straightforward working on an EV... not really that dangerous...
Anytime you work with high voltage there’s a risk of death. One mistake is all it takes.
This is one of the points in this video that was just patently false and misleading. Working on EV batteries is fairly straight forward...and working on EVs is somewhat simpler than more complex mechanical engines where timing and fluids are involved in working properly. Computers are involved in both gas cars and electric cars, and those can be complex...but they are also modularized and replaceable without requiring technicians to be computer engineers to diagnose and repair. The complexity is coming from the automotive market via more advanced sensors and road awareness technology. This is a trend happening on both ICEVs and EVs and affects both similarly. This is another point this video just glosses over. Insurance companies are writing off sensor dense ICEVs just as much as EVs when damage seems more cosmetic because those sensors become a liability if not repaired and calibrated correctly. This is why we see both gas cars and electric cars declared totaled when just the front bumper is damaged, as there are sensors involved that add to the complexity of repair. The same with airbag deployments, where they need to be repaired and reset properly, with the right amount of glue where needed and the entire chemical reaction mechanism that sets them off replaced and thoroughly evaluated/inspected. Insurance companies will simply just give up on the vehicle than pay for it to go through that whole process. For more extensive damage, with EVs there actually is more incentive to total an electric car just because of the battery. EVs in this scenario don't end up in a junkyard per se, but rather an auction lot where they are sold, and the batteries are salvaged. EVs tend to have a higher salvage value as a result due to the precious metals that can be harvested and resold. Even better if the battery was never damaged in the first place. (As an EV owner, it's worth considering buying back the vehicle after it is declared totaled, just to be the recipient of the auction value once it goes out to be bid on...which in most cases is more than the buyback value)
insurance companies will not pay higher rates to work on them. aif the shop is say a tesla certified shop ins will pay x amount and the vehicle owner gets to make up the difference
Tesla going to charge people $1,500 to $2000 to get extra mileage on the batteries.
They already do. You can also go from 4 second zero to 60 to a 3.6 second 0-60 for a $2,200 fee. It's done with OTA update.
@@robertkubrick3738 OTA ??
Out The Azz ??
@@peterdarr383 Over The Air, like a phone. I like yours though.
@robertkubrick3738 Tesla is ripping people off. They should have included the extra mileage in the first place for free
I heard somewhere lately that 90 some percent of EV s since 2010 are still on the road, bullshit
It’s amazing how much money is taken from the middle class to support insurance policies for the rich 🤑
Thank you for this report now I know I will not buy an E.V
Sorry, ev's will not be the future.
Don't be ....
Ok boomer.
Agree
The blue state governments are forcing an end to ICE vehicles by the mid 2030s. Homeowners will own EVs and non-homeowners will rely on public transportation and EV robotaxis.
@@VgAce135 Don't let his ideas hurt you, now.
And people wonder why their insurance rates are skyrocketing. 🤦♂️
DOES THIS REALLY SURPRISE ANYONE WITH COMMON SENSE !!!!!!!!. IN ANOTHER 5 YEARS EVERYONE WILL SAY I NEW THEY WOULD NEVER BE COMMON EVERYDAY TRANSPORTATION EVER !!!!.
The person who can repair electric cars I would say is that they will be getting a higher pay per hour . This will add to your repair cost .
Unfortunately many shops depend upon mostly the use of code scanners to diagnose issues and may think that a highly skilled tech is too costly.
ICE mechanics are already underpaid, imagine paying decent wages to EV mechos.
Not necessarily electric cars, but sensor dense cars which are either EVs or ICEVs. These are typically highly trained engineers who work for service centers within dealerships and yes, they do get paid more, but only because they have more expertise on the complex parts of car servicing (EVs and high tech ICEVs/Hybrids/etc). Outside of that, EVs are actually significantly simpler vehicles from an engineering standpoint. When people talk about "complexity" with EVs...they're talking about the complexity added beyond what is needed to be a functioning car, which is a trend for both electric and gas cars.
But they can’t be repaired!
Nope, I work in a dealership that has EV certified techs and they didn’t get a raise. When the manger asked me to get my EV certification I refused since no raise. I’ll rather keep working on ICE vehicles and when the EVS take over then I’ll probably just quit.
NEVER buy into new technology until it has been tested and proved viable.
That means let the mugs find the expensive problems.
In 106,000 miles my BMW I3 has needed nothing except for tires and a small gel-cell battery. Today it seems few combusted engines can make it to 100,000 miles without major service.
My Chevy Silverado has 110 thousand. I'm getting ready to change a wheel bearing. The wheel wells are rusted bad . Rest of truck good.
Nothing else been touched
126 K on Chevy truck.....nothing but tires.....
126k on original oil? Amazing!
@@bryankramer7769 The oil must look like chocolate syrup or Jello
When an e v catches fire you cannot put it out. In detroit they are chopping off the thick cable that runs from the public charger to the car and scrapping it.😂
I would bet that Joey has never been to a junkyard in his life.
HE WAS BORN IN ONE!
Cmon man! He used to work in a junkyard. After he left his black church on Sunday, he went to work in his Hispanic neighborhood in Scranton!!
maybe bring the junkyard to him bring Teslas there lol
he looks like a junk yard 😅😊😊😊
Basically, gas vehicles are never going away. People are going to have an easy time fighting against this.
You had me till the Trump comment 🤣
Why is there such a high correlation between EV haters and Trump voters? Does drive train technology have anything to do with politics, or maybe ppl are trained to believe whatever their political party tells them. It's sad when someone gives up what was once a mind of their own.
@@anonymousfu The correlation is pretty obvious, most Trump voters believe in a free economy and have not fallen for any of the climate alarmism nonsense
@@graemejones9707 Most ppl don't buy EVs for environmental reasons. Also, it's fine to hate on EV mandates / subsidies /environmental activism for political reasons, but that should be independent of a discussion of the pros/cons of a particular drive train. If you agree with every detail of every argument a particular political party puts forth, you're not really thinking critically. I'm an independent and make up my own damn mind.
@@anonymousfu That's nonsense, I would argue that almost everybody who chooses an EV does it for environmental reasons. The rest of the offering makes no sense. They are way more expensive, residuals are dire, range is severely limited and it takes over an hour to charge it back up if you can even find a charger!
If you believe that CO2 (plant food) is a thermostat for the world's temperature (whatever that is), then you are vanishingly stupid in the first place. Mandating people to buy something that they don't want is something that no government should ever try to do.
If you really can think critically, ask yourself why there are trying to do so. And who this benefits (them) and how (power and control).
When the government gets involved,i it turns to crap.
What? 😮 who would have thought it was just a racket!
Just imagine hitting a curb by accident, having to total out your electric car. With an ice maybe a flat tire or something minor so what 500 in repairs. Electric cars don’t make sense!
On my SUV I busted 3 tires, bent two wheels when I hit some ice 15 miles from work. I was 1.5 hours late and it cost $300 all in including the tow, used tires, straighting a wheel, putting full size spare on, and alignment that turned out to be fine to start with. EV would have been done for.
This is such a silly argument. My cousin has had two bent rims in his Model S. Just a simple repair. No need to total a car.
@@GetThemLyrics wake up, they write EVs off for any minor damage due to the battery storage etc.
None of that would be different in an ev. They also have tires and wheels, and they work just like other cars.
dunno man I hit a pillar while parking with my KIA a month ago, it was an easy fix, exactly the same as an ICE
The whole EV concept looks good on paper but in reality not so much. No way would I want to attempt a cross country trip in one.
Ah, but you see, the acolytes of Battery EVs would never take an EV on a cross country road trip, they'd fly or travel by rail (if they are especially romantic and passenger rail service were available.) You see, most EV owners are different than you and me, they have more money and time to spend on indulgences.
Have you seen the video where a youtuber attempted to do just that? It wasn't so much a cross country trip as it was a trip to every single charging station from east coast to west coast, combined with a whole lot of standing there and staring at the car waiting.
At the beginning of the 20th century, when the automotive industry was in its infancy, and at various stages since then, manufacturers large and small have played around with and experimented with electric vehicles. In every case, they soon abandoned their efforts. There are reasons why this happened. Once again, we are repeating history because we refuse to learn from it.
Problems mentioned here are bad, but limited driving range and higher purchase price weren't even mentioned. Also omitted were dozens of smaller problems. One real biggie: No trade in value at all.
Won,t ever buy an electric car also will never vote for a member of the D party which seems to think they can force me to. Trump 2024!
No one is forcing you to buy an EV, unlike R'cons forcing women to give birth to babies they don't want or that aren't viable.
You know it!!
Yo dude. You've got it...
I wouldn't want to work in a dealership garage and have the vehicle on the lift, the batteries start leaking and catching fire while being under the car
If you had that happen in a garage the resulting fire not only damages but contaminates also, and the water used to control the fire is also contaminated and would need to be contained itself from polluting the environment, madness.
@pauldurkee4764 It be bad alright with all the different oils they use. I wouldn't want to have 4 EV sitting on the show room floor fully charged up and have one go up inflames. It has happened in another country. They used a truck to pull out the EV that was on fire before it got to big of a fire
@@bobjohnston5527
It was that fire in the car park at Luton Airport that did it for me.
@@pauldurkee4764 I seen the video on the Luton Airport fire. Those garages are about 8 feet high. Not high enough for a fire truck. The sprinkler system doesn't have any high pressure to put out the fire
@@pauldurkee4764 A lot of apartments building that has under ground parking has banned EV. Some of them don't have any steel or concrete for the first floor apartments protection. We have a few of them here in Fredericton without the steel or concrete
I'm surprised the junkyard would even accept them.

Electric vehicles will bankrupt car manufacturers. they are pushing this too hard on people. we may get to electric vehicles. We have a long way to go. i’m thinking around 2070 maybe
Three progressives have been planning this since the 90s. It's about communism. Free trade was never Free.
That's a conservative estimate Glen...
I would never trust my safety to a computer programme!
Don't forget about the fact that because of the added weight of the batteries, collisions can be far more catastrophic.
Create a crisis and then offer s solution. The solution is usually not sincere.

There is a vast repair and renovation industry serving ICE vehicles, of all sorts.
Countless DIY enthusiasts rebuild old vehicles, including army tanks.
No one dare buy a used EV.
No one dare try to renovate any old, damaged, crashed or just dilapidated EV due to unknown danger. After initial purchaser of a new EV, I reckon they are scrap.
Please for the love of God do not put our children in danger by making them ride on an electric yellow school bus. That is just a tragedy waiting to happen somewhere in the United States
A friend of mine who works for a school district says the electric buses are a royal pain to maintain.
When I am driving my Toyota Camry 2007 with 300,000 miles, I have observed the faces of those who drive electric cars and they do not look happy.
Was at the junkyard today! Several Prius there!!!
I may get a broken Prius, but I'd want a freshly broken hybrid. Electrical systems don't age well when parked for months.
Prius have been made longer so there should be some in the junkyards. Some prius taxi have over 400,000 miles on them too.
Musk is not interested in providing parts or service for Teslas, he wants the delivery numbers, so just buy another one with your insurance payout
At which point they will become uninsurable as the costs will be too high.
How likely is an electric car to catch fire?
Australia's Department of Defence researched the same question and found that “there was a 0.0012% chance of a passenger electric vehicle battery catching fire, compared with a 0.1% chance for internal combustion engine cars.”Nov 24, 2023
Any sensible.person knew from the start that EVs would be an abject failure.
But what a terrible gross waste of our tax money.
The major reason EV car sales slacked off is the elimination of the government taxpayer subsidy to buy one!
EV's do not have fewer parts, each cel in the battery is a 'part' that can fail and sometime just one of those failing can destroy the whole car.
Just an engine and transmission have almost 1,000 parts, and they're moving parts. You're literally typing this using a lithium ion battery.
Coming from someone who's built engines amd transmissions also, a new engine in a modern car costs as much as a battery pack, about 10 grand.
When they say "fewer parts" or "fewer moving parts" I think it's in the context of an internal combustion engine vs. an electric motor, not necessarily the whole car. But point taken, you have a battery with a number of cells which once they go bad you start to lose range and eventually has to be replaced.

@@erictuffelmire6826 There can be more than 7,000 cells in a Battery car pack. There are about a dozen parts in each cell. There are at least 2 electrical connections for each cell.

Its getting difficult to repair any vehicles not just electric. I have worked in electronics and engineering for over 40 years and things are getting seriously over-complicated. When i did electronics at college a lad asked the lecturer Sir, how come you can boil, freeze and subject scorpions to radioactive radiation and they dont die - his answer was because they are much more simpler lifeforms. When i was around 19 years old i was babbling on about flywheel discriminators in television to an old tv engineer and he said look lad just keep simple - and he was bloody right.
If we really want to save the planet we should repair old cars and stop going down this crazy computerized road.
