🚗 Car Doctor Episode Recap: Safety First! 🛠️
with Ron Ananian
This week, Ron dives into vehicle neglect and safety concerns, with real examples from his shop:
🔧 2015 Chevy City Express Van – Tire cords were exposed and flapping, yet the driver was still using it daily.
🔧 Brake Failure – A car had no rear brake pad left, but the owner ignored the noise because “it went away.”
🔧 2002 Honda Odyssey – Rear wheel bearing was so destroyed the wheel was nearly detaching!
💡 Ron’s Message: Times are tough, but skipping car maintenance can lead to serious accidents. Cut a luxury, not your safety.
🎥 Coming Sunday: New YouTube video on diagnosing a tricky no-start in a 2015 Toyota Tacoma, including why aftermarket scan tools failed and only a factory-level tool (Opus IVS) gave the right answer.
📞 Caller Highlights:
🔹 Tom from Wisconsin – Silverado randomly stalls. Ron suggests checking voltage at the ignition switch and fuse block.
🔹 Darryl from Tennessee – No heat in his Lexus. Likely a blend door or HVAC module issue, but needs a scan tool to confirm.
