So basically i get my car back from the tranny shop and im installing my new H.I.D.Z and my NOKIA Yellowz. in the midst of doing that i decide to check my strut bar, seemed loose so i tighted it down. I finish up, start the car and coast out the garage (backwards) to the street. i tried pressing the gas pedal to accelerate and it doesnt move. put the car in park, force the pedal, next thing u hear is "BAHM BAHM BAHM BAHM BAHM etc etc. so now the pedal is stuck to the floor! shit! to make a semi long story short after looking under the hood, the same like that is connected to the gas pedal was clamped in the body of the car and strut bar! that scared the SHIT outa me!!

 

LOL ur gonna get flamed for this one.

 

bring on the flames! Thing about it, the shop took off the strut bar, but when they put it back on, it was on top of the wire. i jsut happened to "lock" it up after i tighted it down. they THREW the car back together

 

Thats what happens when the wrong person works on your car, and why you always need to inspect all work!

 

Haha it could be worse, you could be like me and spend the whole day figuring out why your car isnt starting only to realize it was in drive... Shit happens, at least you didnt permanently damage anything.

 

thats nothing compared to me leaving it in drive at the store getting out coming back only to the car to launch forward as soon as I opened the door. damn ghost tl. It can always be worse.

 

after getting my tranny replaced i drove around for a couple hours with my battery fastener (the metal thing) sitting on my belts, the dickhead left it on there and i didnt notice till i made a left turn and i heard this Loud rattling. good thing you are safe. sounds pretty scary

 

LOL LOL!!! Wow lol i dont mean to laugh, but when u think about it, its like some movie shit. im just imagining that facial expression..lol. hope she wasnt hurt tho

 

Make 'em buy you a new throttle cable!
