If you want to have the buzzing seat and eye monitoring system to watch for drowsy drivers, i could get on board with that. That is something that actually makes sense to me. But regular lane assist? Again, i pay attention to driving. Last i checked, staying in a lane isn’t terribly difficult. And the few situations where lanes might be questionable are the exact situations where lane assist doesn’t work. So what’s the point?
Right on jagboi. In my case it was nothing as severe, but even a gentle nudge or resistance on the wheel can be incredibly unnerving when you’re on the highway in the rain and use the steering to feel for what the traction conditions are like and are holding a line around a curve on the highway. In my case passing a semi and holding myself towards the left edge of the outer lane.

Then I slid back into the extremely tiny footwell (again, hiring a toddler may be the way to go on this one.)
But this wasn’t a freak incident, and Matt’s video isn’t the only one proving as much. That clip he posted got lots of folks talking about this issue, bringing to my attention a number of other cases of Colorados blowing their airbags while off-road. Just look at the video above that someone posted in the comments of Matt’s clip.
I also found a bunch of service records that indicate a ghost current draw that was draining the battery. It appears that the source of this issue was discovered in 2007: the glove box door wasn’t closing properly. I’ll have to keep this in mind if I notice my battery draining mysteriously:
Number of potentially involved : 1,015,918 Estimated percentage with defect : 2 % Events that demand high current, such as low speed turns, can cause temporary low voltage conditions. When the system voltage drops below 8.8 volts for more than 1 second—e.g., during low-speed turns—EPS assist is disabled until voltage returns to 9 volts for a minimum of 40 milliseconds, at which point EPS assist returns.
When Camaros were rolling off assembly lines in California and Ohio a half-century ago those fitted with manual transmissions had a simple equalizer shaft and pushrods for clutch release. It took a lot of pedal effort to release the clutch and shift gears, especially if you had a stiff racing clutch. Fifty years later, there’s a better way.

Joel Rode’s Hot Rod Specialties shop in Upland, California, performed the new engine installation along with the FiTech system. With everything bolted in place, we met the ’56 at Westech Performance Group for a final rundown and tune on the chassis dyno. Because of some transmission issues they weren’t able to perform a full power run but, using the Superflow electric dyno, they were able to do some final highway cruise air/fuel ratio tuning by setting a given speed that allows the dyno operator to manipulate various throttle settings while maintaining a given speed. This is something only a load-based dyno like the Superflow can perform.
1. Horsepower. It is obvious that Honda is over their “slow-is-better” phase. With 60.21 horses, it is an awesome engine from bottom to top.2. Ergos. Nothing feels as nice, comfy and well-laid-out as a CRF450.3. Electric starting. Ken Roczen dropped it for the weight, but we’ll keep it for the ease of use.4. Maps. We like the maps, but we always ran the stock one. The aggressive map felt crisper but actually gave up one horse everywhere.5. Handlebars. Lower is better. The oversize Renthal FatBars mean adios to 7/8th inch bars.6. Launch control. This is the first time that Honda added launch control. It is overly complicated but offers three different settings.
The GMC Canyon compact pickup truck returned to the market with a new design in 2015 after a two-year hiatus. The Canyon and Sierra are like twins and they have almost the same problems. The older models of Canyons come with electrical and brake issues. The 2015 GMC Canyon was fitted with a dodgy automatic transmission that downshifts roughly.
