    It sounds like the recall repair was not performed correctly, since they had to take it in twice. Also, was the ABS light on again?

  • @Toby1952
    @Toby1952 25 дней назад

    Because of the way automobile technicians are paid these days (flat rate) there have been cases where a part or parts were documented as being replaced, but never were. Some jobs take longer to do than what is "allocated" by the manufacturer, so the technician doesn't even make minimum wage when performing the service, so they don't actually put in the time to replace the part, but mark that they did. Not saying that's what happened here, but that's something that should be considered.

      Hybrid cars with both gas / electric power use high voltage, around 380v. So there's more danger compared to regular cars.

    Alignment shops also charge customers for no work done to the vehicle. You drop it off they do nothing to it they call you and say it's ready, you pay them money for no work done to the vehicle, and Away you go. Now that's the great way to make money when you have no mechanics in your shop cars are coming in and leaving the cash register is filling up and nothing is being worked on.

      Not an electric car, it was from an internal combustion engine SUV. The fire started from the actuator pump seal from the ABS system. Nissan had already recalled the Nissan Murano. Listening and comprehension is important while watching news stories.
