An Option You Don't Need!
This comes under the "now I have heard everything category." [8D]
Sekurus, a company near Los Angeles, CA, has developed a vehicle option- a light on a plastic box mounted beneath the dashboard that flashes when a car payment is due!
The box's LED light starts blinking when a payment is almost due. On the deadline day, the units not only blinks but beeps. When the customer makes a payment, the lender gives them a 6-digit code to enter into the box.
Sekurus' income has increased 30% in recent years, and hopes to achieve $20 million this year.
This is one option that we definitely do not need on our Challengers!!

That would be extremely annoying, and to think my mother thinks that the dinging sound that my dad's Taurus makes when she regularly fails to put on her seat belt on the passenger side is unnecessary and annoying. Though, I wish I could have an option like this for other things. A reminder for when the car is due for an oil change, transmission fluid flush, and for various other reminders.

Hmmm. I will have to check this company out for a job. Who knows RLSH, with this feature out, if this company wants to have a future, they should look into those features to incorporate with this box.

I hate the Stupid Child Saftey Locks on our '02 Yukon XL.
They annoy me.
They should have made a disabling feature.

Actualy. When you shift out of 1st gear, all the doors lock and you have to shift out of drive or unlock manualy.

Are you talking about the feature on the back door that you have to open the doors from the outside? There is usually a switch in the door, when you open up the door you should see it. There wasn't one on the Yukons?

Ah, you are talking about that feature. Like RLSH said, there is usually a way to reprogram that. My 01 Silverado had that. Look in the manual, it will tell you the sequence of events to turn it off. Usually turn the key to on position hitting a few buttons, stand on your head, recite the Pledge of Allegiance and so on. [sm=icon_rofl.gif]
