Three times. One I sure my wife was responsible. She told me we should not travel that day that her spirit didn't want us to go.

Funny thing it was the radiator cover that removed. 45 minutes trip because 8 hours and to make it worst we got home and found that our keys to the house were lost.

We had to wait outside for hours before we finally found someone to help break the door.

Another occasion me and my wife just left the car with our driver and took bike home.

The third one was battery head and I suffered for hours.

Yes ooo, especially one very day that i planned a date with my 4 years crush, we already arranged for a nice restaurant somewhere around Sango Ota in Ogun State, the problem of my car was with the battery , but once i get people to push and warm it in the morning, it will start working again... on this very day, i already get guys in the street to do the usual pushing, after pushing almost round the street, it eventually kickoff, then i set for my journey...

I picked her up in front of her house and set for the romantic journey. we are just 10 minutes away from home when we met with this unfortunate holdup, i tried as much as possible not to off the engine to avoid Bleep up,this stupid car suddenly jacked and turned off, i hurriedly try starting it and the tafuun fun sound was becoming irritating after about five trials. At this moment, i was already sweating as i dont know how to tell her that she will need to come down and push the car... i was still thinking of how to tell her when other cars behind me started horning..peem,peem, oga move your korope nah... nah so one danfo conductor came down and hit my burnet then i woke up from my dream. come and beat me on i.g @kopa.respect

Cars are about maintenance, German cars require a good maintenance culture that’s why they don’t do well here. They’re solid cars if you follow recommendations they’ve defective parts like every other car brands which you could make a case for because they’re expensive so you expectation naturally should be high.
Cars have disappointed me a lot too numerous to count Honda and VW sigh, Honda(gear and engine) VW(everything that could possible go wrong).
I realize I’m not in a place to complain cause I got those cars 2nd hand with poor maintenance by previous owners. Now I have a another VW and it has been top notch a daily horse and high performer just give your good maintenance understand it and you’d be fine.
Your mechanic after you is the next problem of the car.

Omo my 04 Corolla sport, I drove the car myself down to where I did wheel balancing and alignment. Even after it was done, the person that did it tested the car around. The moment he handed over the car key to me, that was how car refused to start. They brought battery and all, only for one rewire to bail me out after some fuse were changed.

-When you were returning for Christmas

-When you were taking your kids to school

What did you do esp when there was no solution in sight
Several times in the middle of the bush on my way to work. I have spares of ball joints in my boot. Calling my mechanic or taking a bike to the nearest mechanic workshop always work for me
