2: The Mysterious Red Line

These mechanics replaced the battery in a customer’s car a week before. When she returned, she had a strange problem. She said the red line had not been on the tachometer before, and she wanted a refund. Sometimes, there’s just no fix for a car problem. Perhaps this was actually a people problem (via Awesome Inventions).

1: This Customer Was Robbed

This customer came into the shop stating that his car sounded a bit different when he started it. The mechanics told him he’d been robbed, although he didn’t understand what the mechanic was talking about, the mysterious disappearance of his catalytic converter. Catalytic converter theft is all too common, and it’s only going to worsen as cars become more expensive (via Awesome Inventions).
