Dash Cam Catches Hood Disaster After Walmart Service
In January of 2024 I took my vehicle to Wal-Mart for an oil change, a few minutes later my hood flew up and smashed through my windshield while driving at 70 mph on the interstate. This was a result of the technician failing to secure the hood properly. This incident resulted in $5k of damages, the damages were covered by Wal-Mart and they got me back on the road relatively quickly.
Although this was a serious mistake, I feel that it was an honest mistake that could have resulted in disastrous consequences. I hold no ill-will towards the technician or Wal-Mart, but I will be checking my hood every time it is worked on by anyone.
Stay safe and double-check your vehicle after service!

CEC Technician is a Reckless & Dangerous Driver
Переглядів 1422 роки тому
This video takes place at the beginning of I-41 southbound near Abrams WI, and ends near Little Suamico WI. This CEC Technician was simply a dangerous driver , he couldn't stay between the lines, even completely going in the other leave before jerking back, following to closely and not paying attention in a construction zone..nearly wrecking, and then blindly making an illegal exit onto an exit...
The bad drivers in Green Bay just don't stop.

Who ever is driving if this is you your stupid how do you swerve that much
What’s up Fried Acorns. Сan I add your video to my channel?
Yes you can.
Walmart 5090 in De Pere WI. Thanks for the dashcam.
You wouldn’t got a penny if you never had dash cam 👍
Hello! I work for MeetingHouse TV. We make a few shows for the A&E Network. Would you have any interest in licensing this footage to us? We pay for clips that make air!
Sure. Also, I have a longer cut of the video: ua-cam.com/video/i4667BK3zYU/v-deo.html
1:43, this used to be common on the Citroen DS.
You trusted Walmart to do this properly? You should have inspected your car before leaving their parking lot, like any other auto shop. It’s your car, you’re the driver, it’s your responsibility you turd
This is why "walmart" and "oil change" don't even belong in the same sentence.
Hello this is Revit up. Can i feature your dashcam clips in my next compilation video ? linked and fully credited, Thank You !!
Sure
@@friedacorns thank you!
Hello! We're impressed by your video and would like to feature it in our project on our social networks. Can we use it? We'll make sure to credit you properly
Yes you can
@@friedacorns Thank you!
you couldve been able to see that it wasnt fully latched befofe you chose to drive it tho
First of all that is not true, there was no obvious indication that the hood was not closed securely, If there had been any sign then I would have gotten out and closed it. Second, it was the technicians responsibility to properly close the hood, a customer shouldn't have to examine the hood to make sure it is shut all the way. At the end of the day, it was the technicians negligence that resulted in the damage and they acknowledged that and fixed the issue.
somehow you ended up in a snow drift when there was no snow in sight in the video? and looks like they close the hood
There's plenty of snow in the video. And he dropped the hood down but didn't ensure it was properly latched.
Who else thinks taking your car to Walmart is just plain dumb?
hi again, may I feature it too?*
Yes you can
@@friedacorns thanks
Have heard too many stories like this concerning the Walmart garage to EVER go to the place myself.
Also you could clearly tell a open hood or one not shut all of the way as you look over it while driving. But hey nice way to sue.
I didn't sue and didn't make any money, walmart fixed their mistake and I was happy with that. And are you arguing that it isn't the shops responsibility so properly secure your hood after service? And fyi, there are two stages to a hood latch, since it was only half shut, it visually appeared shut but wasn't secure. Similar to if you pop your hood without agitator going out and using the lever to actually open it.
How could you not see it bouncing. A closed hood makes no movement at all.
I've actually seen quite a few hoods that have flex or movement when closed, the Nissan Altima is a notable one. And no I did not notice any bouncing in real time. If I had then I would have gotten out and checked the hood.
I'm sorry whenever I go to any shop. I look under the car for leaks and make sure everything is shut tight.
That is a great point, one time I got my oil changed and the tech didn't notice the old filter gasket didn't come off with the filter, so when they put the new filter on the old gasket was still in place. Thankfully I noticed the oil pouring out as soon as they pulled my car out of the shop, so there was no damage.
This is why I check the oil before I leave the parking lot
And remember, respect is everything!
I don't know specifically what your referring to, but I think that's true in general, we should (generally speaking) all have respect for one another. In this incident I personally have respect for Walmart that they stepped up and took care of their responsibility, I also respect the technician who has personally worked on my tires and done my oil changes numerous times. Not that it's OK but, it was the end of the day and we have all made mistakes or oversights that could have turned out worse than they did.
@@friedacorns it’s a reference to GTA2. The sped up video and voice sounds exactly like that!
@@pixelgram93 LOL I guess that I took your original comment way to seriously.
@@friedacorns ye, love it!
Hey! Glad you're doing okay, much worse could've happened but since you've kept your calm and the control on the steering wheel and brakes, the worse was avoided!
Hi there again, ok if I feature it? Credited of course! And where did this happen?
Yes you can. It happened in DePere, Wisconsin.
@@friedacorns Thank you!

Yes you can. The driver pulled in front of me while I was driving down the highway.
Hello Fried Acorns, may I feature your recent video "Idiot Driver in Lena, Wisconsin" on our channel? I will credit you on-screen and provide a link back. Any updates? Thanks
Yes you can, This happened in Lena Wisconsin, I was driving east on highway 22 and the vehicle pulled out in front of me from Duame rd. There was a woman driving and there was a kid in the back of the vehicle standing up and not buckled, I feel that if I had hit the vehicle the kid would have gone right through the windshield. People really need to pay attention to their surroundings, and their kids.
