Q: Scotty, I want to get married, what do you think ? A: Don't do it ! As they get older they're endless money pits !

Who needs Fox News or CNN when you have breaking news on the Scotty Kilmer Channel? Have a great day Scotty!

Maybe Boeing should bring in Scotty and his 'Dealer Level Scan Tool' to see what's going on with those 737's! (inserts meme of laughing donkey)

Chrysler screwing up isn't breaking news. It is, apparently, their business model. Anyway... love ya, Scotty! Thanks for all your hard work!

Chrysler! I told you not to hang around with that Fiat kid!

Even historically Chrysler has strange electrical. On my 1966 Dodge Polara the back up lights are wired thru the wiper switch.

As much as I like the Pacifica, my 08 Town and Country has never failed.

Honda trans recalls.millions 02--03-04 Odyssey 03-04 Pilot 01-02 Acura MDX 03-04 Accord V-6 00-04 Acura 3.2 TL 01-03 Acura 3.2. Im relieved honda fixed them but the list does not include the millions that went bad and no recall.

Scotty’s saved me from bad automotive decisions 7 times now.

I know why Chrysler is screwing up again, they are not Toyota. We will just forget the big Toyota recalls in the last ten years.

Yesterday I saw a Chrysler here in Costa Rica (which is very rare) and I was like: Oh look an endless money pit.

I made the mistake of purchasing a Dodge Ram PU several years ago. Before it was paid in full... Transmission failed twice. Rear end bearings failed 3 times (dealer repaired 1st time) Black paint took a dump and the hood looked like a Zebra. Who thinks that white primer under a black paint job is a good idea? Cat converter clogged before it was paid off. I was happy to off it for $1,700. Never again. The name was always a joke. Do you dodge or just ram it into a wall? Nice when new but beware. It will soon turn to a heap a junk. The only thing I really liked about it was the interior. But.. even using a sun screen, the dash turned into broken potato chips.

I love this channel Scotty you’ve helped a lot with my truck trying to fix things and how to fix it right! Your awesome!

Scotty I truly enjoy your videos. I also respect your years in the business. I went into the automotive repair business in 1980. By 1984 I owned my own shop and averaged anywhere between 25 and up to 60 cars a week in the summertime. I had a 1988 Dodge Caravan that was a rather loaded model. The wiring harness that went in the driver side door was UV sensitive. When I open and closed the door the coating on the wires actually cracked and all of the wires started touching each other. I would go over a bump in the power locks would randomly activate and then even the windows would go up and down by themselves sometimes. I have to tell you I had a Chrysler voyager for roughly 2 weeks. It was a loaner so it was heavily abused by the time I got it. This van was rocksolid very powerful an “averaged 26 miles to the gallon”! in a vehicle you could easily stack 4 x 8 sheets of plywood it! Granted there are some isolated incidents and the numbers are very low on this wiring harness issue that you’re talking about. When it comes to reliability Toyotas are great, I get it. But Chrysler is a far cry from Hyundai’s driving down the road and suddenly incinerating themselves sometimes with their occupants still inside! I have more than one customer that can attest to her suddenly that can happen in their Sorrento ‘s. The Chrysler voyager is so value priced and so intelligently equipped I was truly impressed! And let’s get one thing straight, I hate minivans! I hated by old my old Fully loaded Dodge van because I had to remove the interior to change the wiring harness! But I can tell you the Chrysler quality as jumped leaps and bounds and light years! I just took my wife’s Toyota Highlander back to have the fuel pumps replaced under a recall so nobody’s perfect! Also the rear calipers had cross threaded mountains and we’re rocking back and forth in place. They had to replace the calipers in the brackets, being a Toyota I was shocked at that one as that was simple assembly error more than likely. Chrysler has come a long way and I sure hope you recognize that someday! After all if you want a full-size sedan or coupe naturally aspirated V-8 drive vehicle and not buy a high-end BMW, Dodge and Chrysler are the only game in town! Just think about that! You can even get an all wheel drive full-size sedan or challenger! They are predominantly rear wheel drive and that’s what counts! All of GM and Ford and of course the imports don’t offer a car the way God intended! Can you imagine Toyota making a car the size of the Avalon that has the engine from the tundra, an eight speed transmission, and a limited slip rear differential? We’re talking a longitudinally Mountain drive train!? Then I would consider buying a Toyota for myself and not just my wife! Until that day the Toyota builds a car the way God intended I will not be driving a Toyota as good as they are anytime soon. Besides Lexus especially but also Toyota someone needs to put their designers on a shorter leash. When you buy a car in spite of us styling because you know it’s quality, than there’s something drastically wrong with their styling department.

For the A/C problem, I had a similar problem and it turned out my radiator was way low on coolant because it had a small leak!!! Once I had the radiator replaced and the coolant level was correct, the A/C worked perfectly!!!

If the compressor is going out, go out with it. Buy it a few drinks, take it to a movie, maybe dinner. Etc.😬

Hey scotty love your videos

Low on Refrigerant sound right for the A/C not cold in Idle, or Low RPMs

Had a 2016 Chrysler 200 with 20,000 miles with two ignition coil failures both covered by recall warranty right after getting it. The second failure occurred while MERGING onto the freeway. Complete loss of engine power and nearly got rear ended. I made sure the dealership tested and repaired the others to protect against a third failure. Over 100k miles later with no issues. Check recall issues with EVERY vehicle you get and don’t hesitate to get the proper repairs and rental car service you are entitled to. Your safety is on the line.

The Ford Bronco II had the main ground wire attached UNDER THE FENDER WELL, on the outside of the vehicle, on the tire side. So all that road water, salt, and sand would constantly sand blast your ground connection. What's wrong with this picture? It took me 6 months to get one of those P.O.S.'s to run right, and it was all because of stupid awful design flaws.

I drive a clean 2002 honda odyssey with left & right electric doors, leather seats, all power still runs like it just came out of the factory. Never had a problem with it

The Pacifica was the van that replaced the Town And Country.

Breaking news! Chrysler Screws Up Again! Other breaking news: Water = Wet.

They used to be good too. My uncle had one in the 70's & loved it.

You've heard this a lot, but your memes are awesome, especially the laughing ones. The one that I found particularly funny in this video was the one that showed a pic saying "college ahead" when you were talking about the cost of AC compressors.

Scotty, excellent video!

Nice new intro Scotty. Have to say I'm partial to the old one but I don't like change (I'm weird like that) Gone to the same restaurant for 20 years and literally ordered the exact same thing since the first time I went there when I was 16. lol

Another excellent video. Thanks.

The Pacifica is still the top rated mini van on the market today. Not only in crash tests but everything else.👍

Just like the Ford spark plug issue. You would think after 100 plus years simple things would be figured out

My Jeep had an Aisin/Warner trans. which is same as Toyota Taco...great trans.

Hey scotty Toyota & Honda said keep up the good advice the checks are in the mail !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's the tan ooze inside the heat shrink on the ends of the ground terminals that oozed out too much and on some vehicles got pinched between the nut and the terminal causing poor ground connection. I've done about 8 of these and only had to clean 2. They may recall 200,000 (which isn't that many) but not all of them are affected.

Oddly, the painted-shut chassis ground was a problem on early ford powershift too. Lots of amperage needed for transmission servo controls. Some times taking off the grommet and filing away the paint would fix problems.

Chrysler can use someone like you sir to test and fix all their problems

I had the wiring harness issue and battery terminals go out on a 2016 Dodge Caravan. Had it replaced, and havent had an issue since.

Legalities you should be mindful of : Used cars are sold "As is", which means no implied warranties, but you can negotiate a warranty.

Hey Scotty, how often should I replace the cooling in my Honda CR-V 02 I heard a lot different suggestions but I will trust yours. Please reply when you have a chance. Thank you for all your free advices 🙏

That new intro is CGI gold!! Rev up your engines!!!!!! 🔥

I own a 2009 VW sportswagon with 180,000 miles on it never had any issues with it and no major repairs.

Chrysler...park it in the garage, turn out the lights and listen to it rust!

FCA is gonna be in a lot of the "Breaking News" segments and they're leading right now

Thanks for the Video. I remember thinking back in the 60's that Dodge and Plymouth cars were fast, but put together like crap. All these years later....nothing has changed....lol....

A Chrysler with an electrical problem? I thought that's how they engineered them.

Nice intro Scotty, cheers from Chile

I once had a corona station wagon...that was a good car...Scotty I’m 65 yo lady and have really learned a lot from your videos....I’d like to do a van camper build but don’t know which van to purchase these days...

Hey Scotty, can you recommend a set of AC gauges for the 134a refrigerant. I’ve read the Harbor Freight Gauges aren’t very good.

Boy am I not surprised. What’s up Scotty!

Haven't seen a "car repair" video yet. But I do like the content

National Highway Traffic Safety Administration! ADMINISTRATION! I keep tellin' ya! (Thanks for being so helpful!)

Breaking news: Chrysler screws up again... I wouldn't call this breaking news, sounds more like par for the course.

Scotty’s Toyota’s new spokesperson 😂lol love the videos Scotty’s a awesome mechanic 👍👍👍

Hey Scotty, how do you drive your Celica? Do you like driving fast and braking hard?

Scotty, I like the way you "RING THAT BELL!"

Actually some of the big chain dealerships have a holding area and will keep their used cars there until they can get all the recalls on the vehicle fixed (if it's a safety issue or something that'd keep the car from running). I don't love those chain dealerships at all, but fixing recalls on your used stuff is a hell of a lot more than 90% of all other dealerships will do.

Scotty the type of old mechanic that is too smart but still gives logical information.

Scotty K - If I don't tow at all, is an F150 with the 2.7L engine better for the fuel savings than the 5.0L V8? Is the reliability of the turbos that much of a concern if I don't tow?

What do you think about Buick Regel tourX? Is a good reliable Station wagon to buy or Subaru Outback? What Station Wagon would you buy right now?

My 2016 Ram 2500 is recalled for the steering linkage disconnecting. The service rep on the phone told me they’ll weld it. I’m not sure that’s a good idea. Thoughts?

Nice new startup graphic!

I say low on refrigerant. I had that A.C. not cold enough while idle.

Hey, Ive been looking at this mazda 3i 2008 for a while now on creigslist. I am wanting to learn to drive a manual this summer as well as get my first car. are the mazda3s a good first car to have?

Hey am new to this channel and am Wondering what's the best hatchback to get? Any options? Prefer one with a manual transmission

Good video Scotty What do you think about a 2010 Chevy Impala LT? Is it a good car Ive been having mine for 2 years and i only had to get new Struts She runs like a dream But my catalytic converter is going bad

3:00 where the heck can you FIND those? I can't even remember the last time I seen a Camry or Accord station wagon and I'm 49

HOT DAMN SCOTTY BREAKIN ALL KINDS OF NEWS ROUND HERE

Love the K_Y as a sealer!!

Usually "Made in the USA" is considered a sign of good quality over here. Except for cars. For cars it's more like a warning label.

Scotty, what do you think about 2002 Ford F150 5.4 engine, 4x4, automatic transmission? Also, what does 7700 stand for, I don't have it on mine but I have seen it on other F150s.

Scotty, you are God tier. What a legend!

Thank You!!

For the AC issue, google "AC scroll valve." On our 2005 Equinox we had the same symptoms several years ago. A repair place wanted over $1000 to replace the AC compressor. An internet search revealed the scroll valve could be the main cause and at about $30 it was worth a shot. We had the repair place discharge the system and then I replaced the valve and recharged. We have had cold AC for several years now.

Hey Scotty. How’s the roads in Houston? I live in Detroit. And they suck up here. Love your channel

I have a Chrysler 200c with a ac problem, it doesn't seem to get cold enough, well it' s cool but it should it get colder. is there any know problems with the ac systems on the 200.

That new intro is dope

The issue with the a/c could be the evaporator freezing up, but then you wouldn't feel any air blowing out the vents, let alone cold air.

That new intro tho! Love it!!

We paid $500 for a station wagon 7 seater 1995 Toyota camry LE V6...And Wow...what a treasure find...Like Scotty says..They run Forever and sooo reliable....My recommendation to all is buy either Toyota or Honda cars that was build or made during the 1990s era...These cars were perfected in any way....before all theses technology crap came along...BTW...We are not gonna sell this camry treasure...We are gonna take care of it like a new born baby....lol..

I have an 05 Pacifica with 165000 on it. Runs great.

"Cheaper sealant" pops up a pic of KY Lube. 😂😭

Hey Scotty! got a 2002 grand prix with a jacked up AC. The little widget thing in the fill port is broken and the whole system "need replaced." this is the second car I've owned that had someone heck up that port. What makles it so fragile and do I need to pay $2000 to fix it?

oooh. I like your new intro graphics.

Hey Scotty what do you think about GM considering all-electric Hummers in the near future?

Hey scotty, I picked up a 1990 Toyota Camry all trac it only has about 50000 miles with the 2.0 4 cylinder and the 5 speed manual. What type of preventative maintenance do I need to perform to keep the car running over 150k miles?

Thanks....

The issue with the AC doesn't concern the belt? If it's worn it might not drive the compressor all that well.

I use K-Y on my ground wires

I have a 2005 Chrysler Town and Country, rated 5 stars on everything. It's got 240K-plus miles and still runs and drives great. You do realize they used to be Plymouth

The factory probably uses different engineering groups. The electrical group designs the harnesses and charts out ground paths. The mechanical group says, "We have to reduce the cost of rust proofing the product." Someone thinks about it, comes up with something that uses existing production processes but is "cheaper". Maybe Procurement does a substitution based upon price. They introduce the new sealer into the process. Works fine. For a while. The production group does minimal testing. Some people noticed "problems". The problems go through the bureaucracy. By the time that they catch up there are so many units in the field. Meanwhile the production process is changed. No more issues.

Could the engine be turning off and not running the AC at a stop?

Scotty is da best!

the sealent was probably put under the connection as well

My crv has a bad harness.. The way they have that rigged.. seems every time I open the door another wire breaks and something dont work..

I have old chrysler pacifica 2006, and it's funny that I had the same problem with grounding. Strange that chrysler didn't learn from mistakes in previous models and therefore cannot improove quality. Hovewer it's the best car I had in terms of driving comfort. I have heard the rumors that suspension was based on Mercedes E class, and in back there are really many moving parts but sometimes on other cars only one straight steel pipe connects two back wheels :) So, Chrylser I hate you and love you.

I have a 2017 Grand Cherokee with the 3.6 V6, how do I know which brand transmission I have. I heard some jeeps have the aisain as well.

If you want a rock solid old stationwagon that is reliable you should also look at Volvos because they go on forever.

Nice video start.

Daaaaum scotty uploading a lot

Scotty, I recently bought a 2016 Ford Fusion eco boost with 40liles. What matinee should I do?
