🚨 Beware: CarMax will sell these recalled Jeeps without getting the safety recall defects fixed -- and if they catch on fire and cause a disaster, CarMax will blame the car buyers. abc7news.com/post/chrysle...

🚨 Stellantis recalls Jeeps that can catch on fire. They're warning owners not to park near structures. As if everyone can park away from their home, condo, or apartment & carry kids & groceries etc. for blocks. abc7news.com/post/chrysle...

Good news for American car buyers, from @consumerreports.org. Proven safety features and fuel economy save lives AND $$. advocacy.consumerreports.org/press_releas...

🚨 #Michigan car dealer allegedly sold loaner vehicles as "new." One vehicle had been driven about 6,000 miles. Now their license has been suspended. #scams #cars www.freep.com/story/money/...

Good question. #Waymo #Robotaxi #Tesla #Teslatakedown

🚨 #Parents -- beware of safety hazard in #Tesla vehicles with doors that fail to open, leaving children trapped inside. It's sometimes only a matter of minutes for a child in a hot car to suffer lasting harm from sunstroke -- or die. #Teslatakedown #Musk

More parents describe horror of having their babies & toddlers trapped in #Teslas. Babies & infants can't regulate their body temperature like an adult. If they are trapped in a car on a hot day, they are very vulnerable to suffering damage to vital organs or dying. www.latimes.com/business/sto...

🚨 Ford recalls over 200,000 Bronco SUVs, Explorers, Lincolns, and Econoline vans due to serious safety defects. Ford continues to top the charts when it comes to rushing unsafe vehicles to market, then having to recall them. www.usatoday.com/videos/cars/...

Edmunds reportedly "sick" of Dodge Daytona EV's numerous glitches. No wonder Stellantis / Dodge is hell-bent on weakening enforcement of #California's auto lemon law. insideevs.com/news/777644/...

Congratulations to all @nationalconsumers.bsky.social awardees!! Thank you for standing up for American consumers, and against scammers, crooks, and greedy corporations that exploit consumers and workers -- including children. #Consumers

Wow -- What's up, #Waymo?? #Autonomous

Very interesting insights from Tesla investor Ross Gerber. Obviously he's been doing his homework and is aware of glaring limits / problems with Tesla's FSD. Other investors, are you listening? #Teslatakedown #Musk

#California @governor.ca.gov signed #SB766, championed by @benallenca.bsky.social, to make buying new and used cars in CA more affordable and less risky. Game changer!! When it takes effect almost a year from now....

Consumer boycotts can be incredibly powerful for bringing about positive change.

Ford issues another safety recall for backup cameras. On top of recalls for loss of steering and faulty seat belts. No wonder Ford is attacking #California's auto lemon law, to try to contain their out-of-control recall and warranty costs. cbsn.ws/3WLiBmb

Care about your personal #privacy? Also want to save $$? UH-OH...Watch out for "loyalty" programs that offer discounts and rewards.... wapo.st/477Ly1X

People driving and riding on our nation's highways shouldn't have to worry about being harmed by an incredibly STUPID political stunt. #artilleryincident #I-5incident

Lifesaver!! @governor.ca.gov

Freedom from price gouging over lifesaving insulin!!! TY California @governor.ca.gov #insulin #prices

#Inflation #affordability #tariffs Trump's terrible tariffs. OUCH.

How come #Ford keeps topping the list of manufacturers with the most defective, unsafe vehicles that have to be recalled? Meanwhile, they complain there's too much auto lemon litigation. 🙄 @autosafety.org @consumerfed.bsky.social news.dealershipguy.com/p/vehicle-re...

Over 170,000 Nissan and Chevrolet vehicles are being recalled due to fuel pump issues that can cause stalling in traffic. Beware: CarMax sells hazardous unrepaired recalled vehicles without bothering to get potentially deadly safety recall defects like this fixed. www.usatoday.com/story/cars/r...

Potentially good news for American car buyers -- IF the lower costs are reflected in the purchase price. #Tariffs #Trump #inflation #cars www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Bravo @michellesingletary.bsky.social for being nominated, and for your excellent series!! ✨

Thank you @governor.ca.gov for signing the #California Combating Auto Retail Scams Act + vetoing the bill to more than triple the car dealer "document processing fee" that isn't even disclosed in the price of the car. @consumerfed.bsky.social @consumercal.bsky.social calmatters.org/politics/202...

BRAVO @governor.ca.gov for vetoing #SB791, which would have cost #California new & used car buyers hundreds of millions of $$ each year by more than tripling the car dealer "document processing fee." #affordability @consumerfed.bsky.social @nationalconsumers.bsky.social @nclc4consumers.bsky.social

Looks like Rivian is learning from Tesla's mistakes. But -- we agree with @autosafety.org. NHTSA should issue a safety standard, to make it easier to get out in an emergency and not get trapped inside. @nationalconsumers.bsky.social @tesla-takedown.bsky.social @saferoadsnow.bsky.social
