Requiemdk 1st Gear March 9, 2010 Share March 9, 2010 I'd like to know just how they can check whether it was really a fault with the brakes and accelerator that made the car accelerate uncontrollably and not just someone taking advantage of the situation and going on speeding joyrides. If tomorrow I take my Corolla out to zoom down the SLE at 160km/h, can I call the TP after having my fun to tell them that my accelerator suddenly got problem?

Ben5266 Supercharged March 9, 2010 Author Share March 9, 2010 Your corolla at 160km/h, your rpm should be near 5000 already. A slight release of pedal will slow the car down immediately unless something is wrong with the car. Not easy to fake la brother. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
inlinesix Supersonic March 9, 2010 Share March 9, 2010 In open/empty road still okay, in typical road like singapore, some ppl will have to go to heaven earlier..... That's why we need road hogger off lane 1. Otherwise, they may become angels Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have stacks and stacks of BM's invoice for the repair / maintenance 1. they always say for record purpose 2. they always say upgrade / for customer assurance even though the replaced parts are found defective and replaced with new improved modified version of the related parts - only their workshop people will tell u verbally what has been discussed to do to the car even when after test drive done with workshop people and car owner to determine what is the problem and found what is the problem, they still key into the computer as general check ...... never would they key in and say xxxx found defective, to replace and after the repair / replace the warranty parts, they will say ....bla bla bla for customer assurance, xxx replaced Edited March 9, 2010 by Fedup-camry Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben5266 Supercharged March 10, 2010 Author Share March 10, 2010 I don't know what happened! The accelerator pedal got stuck! *pleads innocence* The TP will then check your front wheel for break dust and see got smoke or not. If got smoke, your pedal stuck. If no, you try to smoke him. See here. http://motoring.asiaone.com/Motoring/News/...0-203648/2.html "There was heavy brake dust on the inside of the wheels and the brakes were smoking when the officer finally caught up to him," Pennings told Reuters. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
