She does need an alignment. Plus ball joints and new tires.
It’s been a year bro how’s life going?
@@BROTHERBOLDLYMUSICKit’s been 12 days, how’s life going?
@@itsink6754 thanks for asking
Not well bro bc I just broke my 72 day streak of SR and I’m getting back on my journey
How’s your life going bro?
@@itsink6754 I’m glad your alive man you never know if some ppl are still alive after a year and no response, kinda eerie
Thanks captain obvious
I see this all day every day! And the worst part is they will decline all work needed including the alignment and go somewhere else that will do just the alignment... and we drive with these people al around us...
That’s America for you
Its impossible to do alignment with loose joints. In Germany they would not allow to tale that car back, it would be illegal.
@@dannym5865hat would cause a tie rod to snap? The ball joints? Because my front driver side did one time and the front wheels locked up when i would stop
@@dannym5865 Yet you still deal with drunk drivers and people who text while driving. You are never safe on the road my friend, that’s life for you
If only mechanics charge reasonable prices.
I dread thinking of how many vehicles are on our roads now with issues like this. Scary..
A lot!
I used to commute about 80 miles a day, and then drove a box truck for a few years. I saw quite a few cars on the side of the road after a good bump or pothole with the wheel folded in or out from an upper or lower ball joint finally letting go.
@@volvo09 that sucks !!
I lowered my car and changed all 6 rear arms to adjustable arms, front upper control arms to adjustable ones along with new bearings, hubs, ball joints and even extended wheel studs. Ive been driving my Acura without a radio on for about 4 months because I carefully listen to EVERY and ANY sounds that come from my work. Im proud to say that the car drives like a fkn dream ❤
I love my car, my truck and my motorcycle and any sounds that arent vroom vroom make me sick
Bro can you help me the the wheel is broken on the driver side and does not roll anymore you know what I need to replace ?
@@supremeYTofficialwhat kind of car is it
The big rims are more important than safety to some people.
Those "wheels" came on the car stock goofy 😂😂😂
@@804MRMANno they didn’t.
Ill tell you one thing......i removed one of those "non removable" ball joints from my 07 ram 1500. And got dayum, boy im telling you......sounded like a 50cal firing off right next to you when it finally gives.
Crazy thing is those customers that see this but still don't get the work done
because it should have been caught before it got this bad.. Inspection guy should have told her in the next year get this done.. they visually inspect it... u can see and feel it. noone wants a dealer $$$.
I would find shade tree and get all of it done.. front and back...
Because these repairs be expensive, I just paid $1600 yesterday to have my car fixed. And now I’m having a wheel bearing issue or something on my driver side front wheel
@@andylevingston16 they don’t fix shit dawg besides tell me why I left the shop one day after I got my tires put on and anytime I turned the ac on it would make this weird flutter noise didn’t do that until after I left the shop.
@@Sun-el3zn Oh, and you're an "eversincer"! What a surprise. You sound like one of those snakes that tries to scam shops out of free work.
"EvEr SiNcE yOu PuT mY tIrEs On My Ac MaKeS nOiSe" Gtfoh
I got quoted $4195 to replace 1 strut and a lower control arm with a Knuckle well I got all those parts myself for less than $1k and worked on it my self for free of course😂
Good job checking it out... I've seen shops just "do what the customer said" without questioning why.
Literally driving till the wheels fall off 😅
I'm dead... laughing at the red caliper plastic cover. Hahahaha 😆 😂 😆
and those things are expensive
Hey two ball joints spent around the same time. I’d say the production line that day was at least consistent with there quality control.
I know how they feel . And how she feels . I just found that out with my ride when i had to replace the battery and gave my ride look over . Going into the shop tomorrow for new lower balljoints and a complete inspection got the chitty chitty bang bang and some swayin going on . Time for more upgrades to add. Gotta do what you gotta do to keep your 💯 .
People that drive cars like this are a danger to us all 😂
I dont know much about cars but from what i can just tell the ball joint issue can potentially or will make it so the wheel can come right off right?
Homeboy said FK the ball joints, I'm still paying off these rims and pretty red calipers
Just had to do my arms and ball joints, bloody awful roads they were in excellent condition about 4 months ago!
They gonna need more then just a plain alignment job 🤷🏿♂️🤦🏿🤣😂😂🤣🤣😭
Customer declined repairs at this time 😂😂
This guy legit! I wish he was near my area. Last week took my 2016 f150 for broken ball joints, turned out I also need upper control arms. No biggie got extended Warranty. Shop took a whole week claim warranty was slow to process, mean while the whole time I was communicating with the warranty. Besides that lie, when they finally gave me my truck, a lil bump on the right side turned into a wabble within 3 days, plus tire would rub when turning to the left or reversing. Took it back, owner didn't even want to put it on the rack. Said they could move my tire but it was going to be at an angle where my tire would waste more quickly. Other solution was to CUT piece of steel where tire was rubbing for a charge of course. Even though when I took it in with broken control arms and ball joint there was NO rubbing. After extensive research, took it to a shop with over 50 yrs of doing alignment where I was billed $150 for alignment and finish installation of said control arms and ball joints. Even the worker at that shop where mad at the injustice told me to go back and ask for my money, to tell them it's cheaper than to the consequences that would've happen to me and my family. Mindful, workout any fancy modern machine, with just good old strength and gages. Truck runs straight, no rubbing, or death wobble and steering wheel straight.
Craziest part is that so many people think it's ok to beat the shit out of their car while driving it. That's how they end up here.
good inspection.
check the steering linkage closely.
this car needs more than tires and setting the wheel align.
My shop would just do the alignment and not even check this
Same thing happened to me,exept hit curb rain 2 days ago fortunately didnt hit anybody but its damaged right wheel front and back bith in right side and left side front and back wheel is all good but possibly need alignments
A customer came in for an alignment to my shop with a 2010 camry. Both his ball joints were dry rotted and leaking, Tie rod ends dry and torn, and CV axle leaking on his left side. I told him get it fixed before we do the alignment, he agreed he wanted to be safe. He ended up not paying for anything and probably went to the next shop for an alignment.
Just had this same issue but i had the ball joints replaced then they said could be the knuckle so i dont understand what the problem is how would i check or know ?
It’s not just the ball joints. Seems the wheel hub bearings need replacing as well! 😮
Customer be like, it has a small knock when going over. Bumps
All those *ooopies* added up 😂😂😂
After market wheels will bust those joints a lot faster then factory equipment
Yup!
No rubber sidewall’s to absorb the pot holes!
😂
I had replaced my own for play. Yet another great diag video.
That ball joint is getting ready to pop out I had one that came in for oil change and the ball joint had play and the customer didn’t want to get it repaired so when I was backing it out the ball joint popped out all I was doing was backing into a spot
Custom carbon fiber special edition interior probably cost 10 K extra 😁😁🤣
i can't imagine having my wheel bearings and ball joints called out by a guy with his shoes untied. lmfao. good work though.
Yea its amazing how ya brain can still function even with your shoes un tied. Lol..Thanks for tuning in dude.
Hello, one question I have.
I need tire aligment, because my outer front tires are worn of and my car steering wheel is not straight and when you drive it pulls me to the left.
Main question before I go for aligment do I need to put on new tires or I should go with old tires which are worn out on the outer sides or there is no difference
Buy the new tires and get them aligned
@@davidjackson9680 i did
4 months no problems:)
Do you rotate your tires every 5,000 miles or so? A lot of people think they need one because they see tire wear. Sometimes it's not about an alignment
Do y’all not realize that everyone can not afford to get everything done IMMEDIATELY I might just want an alignment today and come back for the ball joint replacement tomorrow stop judging and bashing ppl and you don’t know the situation smh.
This issue had been going on for some time. This didn't happen over night. This is called neglect. If you drive a vehicle, you need to put money away for that vehicle for WHEN things need repair.
Is the opposite you need to replaced the ball joins and then get the alignment..
@@franktorres633what if I just want me steering wheel centered, how would I go bout doing that without doing all that extra stuff immediately?
Marquee Wheels, M3246. Same brand I have on my Chally, but not same model. Them ball joints are the reason them tires look like that.
Gotta see this video
Random thought. Why exactly would somebody downvote this video?
Talk about a chase of the shakes…😂😂
This will be one of the times she will say, "I don't believe you. You are taking advantage of me.". 🤦♂️
LOL but understandable. You probably would be correct.
Not everyone can afford to fix everything at once you don’t know what position someone is in or what they’re going thru in life . Yes it’s incredibly stupid and dangerous but bottom line is they only have money for an alignment so they have to go somewhere that will do JUST that. Who are you to judge I mean what you gnna do pay for the customers work yourself lol ?
getting an alignment on that is pointless,
No shop in their right mind would do an alignment on that.
“Y’all see that”
*camera turns into a washing machine* 🌀
like no bro i do not see anything
Is it the lower control arms AND ball joints?
Link the video!
How you like those aftermarket wheels and tire now? 😂
Mine is kinda like that, I just haven’t had the time to complete it yet
Props on shaking the vehicle down before doing an alignment.
Mine makes a strong buzzing in the front I feel in my seat and pedal . I hear a single knock like something snapping open and shut no matter what speed . Notes on car in 2021 said keep eye on outer tie rod. Started when I got all 4 new tires smh no one knows anything
I just had ball joints, tie rods and , new wheel bearings done....also had to get new tires because of it .....take me as a witness never let it get this bad lol
Full video plz
How long has that car been sitting? Is that a spider web on the right side?
Last two cars I had have had wheel bearing issues
Salt would get in them
One of my cars is a 2006 Pontiac G6 and I took it to a shop a long time ago that was supposed to replace the whole front end suspension there's new control arms new tie rods inner and outer but I don't think that they change the struts because the mount is still the same Rusty Mount that's been on there the boot doesn't look torn so it's hard to tell because it doesn't look bad but it feels horrible especially going over railroad tracks or a speed bump it feels like the whole front end suspension is just loose and getting ready to fall off! 🤦🏽♂️ Could that be the fact that it needs new front end struts if everything else was already replaced including the wheel bearing?
Just give her what she asked for 🙄🤦♂️ she wants her wheel aligned & that's all she wants to pay for right now, damn smh
Both lower control arms & both OUTER tie rod ends. Make it EASY on yourself JT. 😎👍
You should be able to hear and feel that while you are driving.
If you’re reading this and drive a Chevy that shudders or shakes periodically, get a transmission flush. There’s a service bulletin addressing this. Of course, check your brakes and rotors.
And they be thinking they pimpn!!
Well I think all that shaking it around did the job good work 😂
People will still complain and say i only came for an alignment lmao
Im laughing at what your doing with the camera angles
Here is the kind of mechanic that WILL break your car. One, notice how he shoves the car in park. Two, notice there is no paper on floorboard or seat to prevent oil and dirt. Three, it is good he noticed the ball joints, but does he have to continue adding pressure to prove that it is loose? So he can set up a camera to record this but he can't be considerably gentle when putting it in park or putting paper down to prevent oil and dirt from getting in the car. I wouldn't have this guy working on my car. Sound like the kind of mechanic that'll be eating a sandwich over your engine. Also, I hope he's not going to be the person that speaks to this customer. You can already tell he got jerk tendencies. It's not like the lady knows her ball joints are worn she just thinks she needs an alignment.
Well the good news for you Mr Clown Man is that I don't want to work on your POS cars anyway. And for the record you have no idea who car this is, for all you know this could be a car I'm considering buying for the low. Just used it to make this video. Fact is, you don't know anything so I suggest you take drama queen petty ass on somewhere. You could have easily simply hit the stop button on the video but ya curious ass hunting for shit to complain about. Tell you what, i got about 1k other videos on here that you more than welcome to watch and be petty on. Have fun with those as well, enjoy yaself hater.
@@OnlineMechanicTipstell em the facts then?
Eating a sandwich over the engine? I can drop a handful of sand on the engine and it's not going to do anything. What do you think the engine encounters while driving down the road? I think you're talking out of your ass and you can't even figure out how to get the hood up.
Imagine how fast them tyres scrubbed out 😂
So wheel bearings and ball joints then?
Man I laughed to hard I make the same noise oooohhhhh when I find something wrong lol
Those ball joints can be pressed out
Dis my car right now driving a hoop d I went from changing a cv axle to upper/low ball joints, inner/out tie rods, an alignment, wheels, shocks, stabilizer bushings, a frame bushing. Just rebuild the whole bitch and quit screwing around lol
It needs everything.
I'm not sure I'd give her rear an alignment with that level incompetence. How do you not feel that when you drive?
This looks like my Rav it started making noise around Christmas choose to get my kids Christmas by the time I could afford it them wheels were barely hanging on lol total new front end and two tires all the toys I bought for Christmas are lost or broken. Dad life.
I lose sleep at night knowing people drive around like this. If I so much as hear one clunk or rattle in my front end, the first thing I check is my bearings/balll joints. I just rebuilt the whole front end in my pickup......I'll never understand why people don't just learn how to fix this on their own, it's litterally a super easy repair to do.....the auto parts stores have the tool. I just bought my own and got a slew of air tools to help along with it. Last ball joint job I had done at a shop I got charged 1500......after that I'd had enough and vowed to never let a shop touch it again.
Tie show laces? That's a safety hazard😅
Dont trip, you might need a lace alignment yourself
Bro stop moving the camera when trying to show us some thing😂😂😂
Rims are nice and all but Gyyyat they be fucking up your suspension.
Wherl hub assembly need to be changed too
My car vibrates at 45 mph anytime someone's sitting in the passenger seat. What do y'all think that one could be? It goes in the shop this Thursday
Get that checked out ASAP!
Why does everyone bypass wheel hub assemblys ??? Also needs to be changed if your tire will do that btw lmfao and tbh it looked like the ball joint nut was lose
Its not that its bypassed, if it shows up loose during your inspection, you should def include it in your estimate. Thanks for watching Parker. Please subscribe to the channel for me, thanks.
Is there not an annual safety check in this area? Those balljoints are well past it. How could anyone drive with that knocking?
The car must be shaking like shit!
It was
Wheel bearing ball joint and tires
My man says do you see that rotating the camera, sit atill
Just a little bit of play lol
Just get a new control arm might as well then the alignment 🤣
That’s not the bearings??
Passenger side rim is also loose.
Them calibers are horrible for lower ball joints
Yoo Dangerous as fuck
Thats a lot free play. Sheesh!
Don’t take mechanic advice from a guy who can’t tie his shoes
I supposed that they should take it from your nobody ass?
That’s definitely the sign of a sloppy man, as well as these comments 😂
Oversized tires do it all the time . She us LUCKY she came in when she did
She needs some front-end chassis work done and then she can get an alignment
easy fix , they aren't too hard to do, they look like brand new cv axle boots
Wheel bearings
Man just fix what they ask for stop trying to upsell people we can’t afford it I’d rather risk it than pay $2000 today
Lol, thats when you simply say no to the up sells. Im cool with that because on some I really dont want to do. Merely covering my ass to avoid lawsuits
Why would he do the alignment they asked for if it’s not gonna work? Then they’ll come back saying he didn’t do it right.
@@edgarh252 Exactly
And you idiots wonder why your car is fcked up to begin with stupid ahh mindset , I wouldn't even do it I'll reject and tell them to take it else where you'll be buying a new car soon
Bro, your shoe is untied
yep my car vibrates when i slow down
Sounds like a brake rotor issue
Do you ever bring the customer back into the shop and show them what is wrong with their car
Yes, I also grilled her on how she should not even be driving this car on the road. It was scary even driving it into the shop from the parking lot. But the estimate to fix properly was to expensive for her.
@@OnlineMechanicTips but has enough money for the aftermarket large rims.... priorities I guess.
@@OnlineMechanicTips what was the cost??
Nice to have grease fittings 😂
How could she ignore that lol
Camera moves were a little sickening
Fun times.
