10 Craziest Engineering Fails From Your Favorite Car Brands
Dont Forget To Subscribe!!
-----
This is a mercedes benz, in the 90's it had a huge engineering failure
and this is why.
see mercedes once tried to make biodegradable wiring.
it all started when germany passed a law requiring a certain percentage of new cars
to be bio degradable
so that when you junk it those parts will return to the earth.
but they decided instead of biodegradable seat covers or headliners
the part they would replace with a eco alternative is the rubber that covers all of
the electrical wires.
Overtime the wires got exposed to the elements and they degraded.
Causing a ton of short circuits and even worse.
mercedes never issued a recall even though a wireing harness with
no insulation is incredible dangerous
would you drive it?
This Is A Mazda 6
This Is A Yellow Sac Spider
They Have A Love Hate Relationship And This Is Why
See Yellow Sac Spiders Are Attracted To Gasoline Like Hyrdrocarbons
And On 2009-2015 Mazda 6's
There Was A Way For These Spiders Drawn Out By The Scent Of Fuel To
Enter The Fuel System And Spin Their Webs Eventually Clogging Everything Up.
After Crawing Through A Small Auxilary Hose Used For Ventilation
Once They Spin There Webs The Gas Fumes Cant Escape Like They Need To And
Pressure Builds Up In The System.
Mazda Became Aware Of This After Several Owners Had Their Gas Tank
Crack And Leak Fuel Due To A Build Up Of Pressure.
Eventually Releasing A Software Patch That Regulates The Fuel System Pressure
Even If There Was Spiders Living Inside
Not Able To Rid Their Bug Problem Mazda Learned To Co-Exist
Would You Drive One?
This Is Ford
This Is FireStone
Ford And Firestone Had A 100 Year Relationship That Ended Abruptly And This Is Why
See This Happened When People Started Crashing In Fords New Suv The Explorer
Police From These Crash Sceenes Would Report That The Entire Threads Were Seperating
From The Tire Itself.
Ford And Firestone Have Been Working Together Since The Model T.
And Were Both Adamant About Resolving The Issue
Firestone Imediatly Recalled 6.5 Million Wilderness Radial Tires
But Even After The Recall The Crashes Continued
So FireStone Would Come Out Saying The Problem Isnt The Tires But
Rather The Explorer Itself Stating It Was Unsafe And Would Roll Over In A
Crash Regardless Of The Tire
Ford Quickly Denied These Allegations And Abrubtly Ended A 100 Year Relationship.
Would You Drive One?
This Is A Toyota Tacoma
From 1994-2004 First Gen Tacomas Suffered From Frame Rusting
Due To Their Box Frames Trapping Water Inside
Which Forced Toyota To Recall 800,000 Trucks
Then From 2005-2011 Tacomas Suffered From A Worse Rust Problem In The Rear
Leaf Spring That Would Rot Causing Them To Snap And In Some Cases
Puncture The Break Lines And Gas Tank
resulting in them Recall Another 690,000 Tacomas
See The Cheap Steel Being Used To Make The Leaf Springs Rusted Easily
Initially Toyota Offered Steel Clips That Would Go Around The Rotting
Leaf Spring And Hold It Together
But Owners Were Not Happy With This Fix
And Toyota Issued A Total Recall
Would You Drive One?
This Is A G Wagon
Originally Used By The Military And German Farmers
They Were Fairly Slow Trucks, But Nowdays Not So Much
They Come Stocked With A Handmade AMG 621 HP Twin Turbo Engine That Does
0-60 In Under 5 Seconds.
But, Despite 4WD And Modern Day Technoloy To Help Keep Them On The Road
Their Tall Stance And Narrow Wheel Base Make Them A Bit Sketchey
At High Speeds
But Could You Imagine That In Reverse?
In 2016 20 G65 AMG'S Had To Be Recalled
Because They Forgot To Program A Electrical Speed Limiter For The Reverse Gear
Allowing The Car To Reach Speeds Of Over 60MPH In Reverse.
When It Should Be Limited To 15MPH
It Was A Quick Fix That Involved Altering Some Code In The ECU
Would You Drive It?
This Is A RX-7
They Have A Horrible Design Flaw
And This Is Why
See When Engineers Designed The RX-7 They Failed To Put The Fuel Filter
In A Easy To Access Location Such As, I Dunno Under The Hood?
Instead Designers Of The 3RD Gen RX-7 Put The Fuel Filter
In The Back Of The Car Between The Differential, The Sub Frame, And They Sway Bar
Meaning You Have To Disassemble The Rear Suspension And Drop The Entire
Sub Frame To Change Your Fuel Filter.
A Job That Should Be Done Around Every 20 Thousand Miles
Being Such A Huge And Expensive Jobs Many Owners Just Didnt Do It
Wich Led To The Filter Becoming Dirtier And Dirtier
Eventually Working Its Way Into The Engine Causeing A Lack Of Power
And Break Downs
Would You Drive One?
This Is Ford
Between 1988 - 1993 Ford Build 7.9 Million Cars And Trucks
With A Faulty Ignition Switch That Would Overheat And Fail
Due To Its Location Next To The Engine
Causing Your Car To Stall, Losing Control Of Steering And Braking
In Some Cases The Ignition Set Itself On Fire Burning Down The Car
For Was Aware Of The Issue But Instead Of Moving It To A Cooler Location
They Decided To Beef
