Avesher Flips Out--Cops Called
« on: March 11, 2023, 01:33:28 PM »
I buy a used suv, change the front struts myself, good as gold, need a wheel alignment. I take it to Kal Tire, 150 for an alignment. An hour in they come to me say "theres an issue". They, I repeat they, they told me they busted it and show me its some bold on a control arm or something. Im like so youre gonna fix it? They say yes, but it will cost me a thousand dollars. THEY bust it and want to charge me a grand, and they say they wont release the suv to me til its fixed

AVESHER SNAPS, LOSES IT, cops called, people hiding.
In this case losing it pays off, they pay for the suv to get towed to my place and dont charge me a dime for the alignment. I shouuld have instantly known when a 19 year old negroid kid with dreads went to work on my suv that it was  doomed

In the end, Im pretty sure I can get away with a weld to fix it, 100 bucks max.

Fuck Kal Tire

Dude that’s awful.

I hate when these “repair places” really aren’t and they try to screw your over. I hope you file a complaint or threaten a lawsuit to get your car fixed.

Ummm.. where to start.
If I lived near you I would've done it for you for free.
Not sure how they snapped shit..
Knee grow probably used a big pole to help him crack one off open one of your tie-rod nuts and what he was levering off - broke.. ???

It's literally like if an employee took a hammer, smashed my window then told me I had to pay for it and can't take the vehicle  until it's fixed

Oo thanks. I was curious..
Okay, so he snapped the head off the bolt.
I don't know what tf that part is tbh.. never seen it before.. but it doesn't look like anything toe/camber/castor related so I'm not sure why they'd try to loosen those bolts. Wheel-alignment-related bolts/nuts are thick/big. They look like little 3/8"-1/2" / 10-13mm bolts.

(Fucking internet died)

Cool.

Other weird thing about your pic is it says "2WD".
I'm pretty sure your vehicle is a 4WD
and you got (attempted to get) a 4 wheel alignment (hence the $150 Canadian).
So you could have the wrong pic/part there..


It sucks for both parties. All these headaches now over a fucking bolt.

Physically he needs a front strut change and wheel alignment, but the titanium pins don't weld

There you go. Those pics make sense.
They're your rear camber adjustment bolts..
Could be a very easy fix.. if you can remove the bolts from the rear (of what the pics show.. the other side of the bolts) I believe you should (easily) be able to (with a breaker bar and socket).. I'm brain-farting atm.
I don't remember ever removing them before.. (oh maybe once or twice) as you don't have to  to do an alignment.
You'll need to order/find/get the same bolts.. that could be the biggest headache.
I'd spray the other 3 with WD40 now..
and then I'd loosen the other 3 before going shopping to see if they're okay (in case the others break).
