Went out this morning; everything was as normal until I tried to turn her over and nothing. No signs of anthing over the last few days. No slow cranking, no warning lights...nothing. She just would not crank at all. No clicking, nothing...just dead. WTF :emotions122:

To make it worse, I tried pushing it out of the driveway and something ripped in my leg. Just sitting here waiting for the wife to get back from bringing the kids to school and off to the hospital I go.

The truck is going back to the dealer now for this, plus the "cold knock" issue. I ended up tearing my Gastrocnemius (or calf muscle) trying to push the Yuke in to the street. The rest of the week in bed and six weeks in an air cast.

Happy Monday :Stupid Me:

File a claim against GM to pay for your hospital bill - they made profit first quarter cutting corners. You should be able to get to an agreement ;)

In retrospect it was a stupid idea, but it rolled out to the street. I only had to push it a little bit further (with momentum) and then it would roll down the street where I could park it against the curb. My wife needed to get the kids to school and the truck was blocking our other car.

They can't be held responsible for my stupidity.

Mine did that once when I got the windows tinted, and one other time. Mine's an 07, so I think an Optima is in my near future.
