“Unearthed Secrets: Mechanic’s Routine Repairs Reveal Hidden Treasures and Unexplained Mysteries”
Why? Well, they seemed to figure that this jury-rigged contraption consisting of an aluminum baking tray and some baling wire would hold it together fine. That should be yet another nail in the coffin of the phrase, “The customer is always right.”
Cue the horror movie music
When the customer pulled into the shop with this serious problem, Reddit user SpillNyeDaCleanupGuy quoted them as saying that their Ford F-150 “wasn’t braking very well.” And once the mechanic saw what they were dealing with, that seemed like the understatement of the century.
Not only was there a lip on this drum that almost wore right through it, but it’s also clear that the whole thing is caked in this gray gunk. Although some commenters figured it was grease that was mummifying this drum, SpillNyeDaCleanupGuy said it was actually multiple years’ worth of brake fluid and gear oil.
They can’t save ’em all
According to Reddit user yokaibutterfly-, this brand-new car didn’t get to be in action for long before the driver apparently ran over a big rock. That’s what caused this gaping hole in the bottom, but further problems resulted after the driver kept going.
As they told it, the motor locked up, and the steering rack, engine, and transmission were also affected. As a result, this car is completely totaled after having only 120 miles on it. What an absolute shame.
