Nice design
My wife had to rent a car a few days ago. They gave her a 2014 GMC
Terrain with about 27k miles. By time she got back home, the right front tire pressure warning light was indicating low at 27psi. I checked the other tires and they were about 32psi, so I put 33psi in the supposedly low tire. The pressure sensor is obviously defective. The light (it actually a 2"x3" message box that covers half if it's instrument area) still remained on indicating 27psi. Other cars have just a small 1/2" diameter light that can be covered with a piece of tape if you don't want to let the dealer rip you off with a new sensor. But I guess GMC caught on to that and wanted to prevent that. Nice design. Too bad they can't channel their creatively into making a reliable vehicle. Have any other manufacturers gone to mega-large useless warning messages designed to generate revenue for their dealers? -- Web based forums are like subscribing to 10 different newspapers and having to visit 10 different news stands to pickup each one. Email list-server groups and USENET are like having all of those newspapers delivered to your door every morning. |
