[QUOTE="mattwtrs, post: 75947, member: 1187"] It sounds like your automotive group was trying to cut cost and putting the driver and the public at risk. I have driven just about every vehicle in the UPS fleet at one time or another so I can appreciate what you are saying. I have had tie rods break, rear axles come out of the rear end, have lost brakes due to broken cross over lines in front of the radiator. I have had friends involved in roll overs too and they weren't due to driver error but due to the condition of the car or a broken part, fortunately they are still alive and only received bumps and bruises. I have found that cars from other centers can be quite an experience because of the mechanic's work ethic and his cost cutting methods. Any time I have an issue with a safety item I make it a point to talk to the mechanic or get a supe involved and ask them if they would allow a family member to drive the equipment in the condition that I have wrote up.
