Long story short, someone threatened me at work etc etc and they got fired and already when I went home fomr work that night his girlfriends followed me and threw a glass bottle at my car, that missed. I work at another place too and they found out I guess. so last night on the way out of the parkin g lot I noticed that my car was driving weird etc. Went outside and both passenger side tires are flat. Don't we have tire pressure sensors in the tC? The light never came on and both these tire were definately flat. I went to the gas station and there are definately holes in the side walls. They also egged my hood. Anyways I was just sharing and wanted to inquire about my stupid tire sensor things.

A 'hate crime' because they threatened and attacked you over race/religion/sexual preference/etc or some other reason to simply not like you? YIKES!

Did you contact the authorities when you discovered these things? At least having something on file about the vandalism would help in court if it re-occurs or something worse happens. That really sucks. Some people truly have no honor.

Oh, and there is something definitely wrong with the sensor if you were riding on rims and it didn't display. I'd have it looked into.

But DAMN, what excitement are you in for at work TONIGHT??? :nails: Be safe!

well i guess it wasn't a hate crime since it had nothing to do with my race/religions/sexual prefereance. but what ever.
Yes I have a report from the police even though I have no proof to who it was but i KNOW. Stupid tire sensors....

A hate crime is at least is more logical than a random crime....it tends to give purpose to life. LOL

The sensors will not trip below a certain speed. So if you were driving very slowly (which I am sure you were on rims) then it would not trip. I cant remember the speed off the top of my head. At low speeds it is easy to have a larger differential in wheel speed around sharp corners so most of the low tire sensors are designed to not trip at low speeds.

As far as the people are concerned... they need their a$$e$ stomped!!! Sorry to hear that people are so weak and spineless that they have to take it out on your car!!!

get a alarm,

Thats FIRST, something that will page you, or call you..

The compu-star, and viper pager system's are the best.

Second, Buy some gloves, and a mask, follow that nasty ho, Till shes alone, and kick her Teeth in..

im sure she will get the idea after you kich her Face in, and make her bleed,

:) NY Style : )

Alarms won't do crap for tires :P

That sucks, bigtime. Do you need 2 potenzas? I can get 'em to you for a good price :P

yea i do need two potenzas but I cant wait for them. Cuz I need to drive my car around now! It sucks to sit here at home and I can't find these stupid tires anywhere. I might just get all four new ones... sigh! BF Goodrich i think? G Forces... I'm looking right now

and as for the _____ and her b/f. My boyfriend and friends want to avenge me LoL. I dunno its all crazy and silly to me. The tires cost $239 at the dealer for... ONE wow I might as well get 4


[EDIT] I was reading my post and saw that I typed biscuit I was like how the hell did I type that instead of B**ch? oops sorry

[EDIT Nov 12 2:41AM] Why can't i post replies and stuff on the thread I started? I can only edit my old ones... I don't get whats going on.... I don't even know if anyone will read this since its on the first page. oh well. The car is fixed and the police can't/won't do anything cuz they suck. thanks for the comments, care and concerns.

Lol. biscuit... And yes, POStenzas are EXPENSIVE for such a crap tire.

well i guess it wasn't a hate crime since it had nothing to do with my race/religions/sexual prefereance. but what ever.
Yes I have a report from the police even though I have no proof to who it was but i KNOW. Stupid tire sensors.... Do you really need a light on the dash to inform you that you have 2 completely flat tires? :doh:

Women. :eyebrow:

At least guys know better than to mess with the car. :gun:

Take her tail light wires and run them to her gas tank..........

Since this seemed to be a rant more about the sensors than the threats (wth?), did you ever calibrate them? That might be why they never went off.....Along with engifineer's statement.

you should notify the police about that behavior and give tehma s much info as possible and see what tehy can do for you. and take pictures of your car so you have proof

Take her tail light wires and run them to her gas tank..........

you guys crack me up but good idea.

well guys do know better than to mess with a person's car but dont you have coverage to ur car? if so get a police report and report vandalism to ur insur company and it will all be fix for freeeeeeeeeeeeeee..

anyways let your bf and friends avenge you.. they wont stop unless you retaliate.

i was beat up at school along with my friends by 30-40 people at once and there was a racial hating war but the only thing was my race (asians) didnt do anything cuz it was started by 2 guys that decided to start a war but in the end I stab 1 guy in the leg off rage with a pen and ba damm the war ended.

oo ya yesterday my bro was attack with fireworks and he called the police and now its over ...

so i guess you take it to the law or u take it by ur own hands. ;)

:eyebrow: :eyebrow: :eyebrow: :eyebrow: :eyebrow: :eyebrow: :eyebrow:

I think you are wrong. My tripped when I turned the engine on and I had a nail in my tire. Same with my dads old highlander.

thats a very dumb move. More or less at that point, you will do something stupid and secondly its just dangerous.

At least have a can of mace... if you aren't trained with a gun, PLEASE don't get one...you might shoot your Scion.

NOTHING is stupid when it comes to self defense/ survival in the BIG city. Well I have a gun in my car and it is legally armed.

Theres no point of gettin one when u dont learn how to use it.

Not sure how it did, because it works off of wheel speed. It must have tripped the last time you drove it and you did not notice until you started it back up. It even covers it somewhere in the manual. 99.9% of cars with this feature operate off of wheel speed. Only a very few that I have heard of have actual pressure sensors in the wheels.

And as far as the part about carrying a gun... sorry, but I do. At least on long over the road trips. I would rather be explaining why I shot someone than have them explain why they killed me and my family at a dark rest stop. BUT, if you arent level headed enough to know that it is ONLY a last resort self defense item and also level headed and mature enough to know how to use it correctly and only grab it when that is the only way, you should not have one period. I would take an ___-beating before pulling one out, but if I feel that my or someone elses life is on the line... it WILL make an appearance.

I too have one, and am trained in it's use and will be prepared to use it. But the people that play too much Grand Theft Auto have no need to even drive past a gun store.

:rofl: very true!

Be creative when paying back. :no: :rofl:

Here are a few hints I have heard about. This is of course just for discussion. I would certainly never, ever think this is OK to do. :lalala:

1) Grass killer in the front yard spelling out a few choice words always works wonders a few days later. :rofl:

2) fill their tank up for them...with 5 gallons of diesel fuel. Won't tear much up, but they will look pretty stupid driving a bug killing machine. :rofl:

3) epoxy on their car with glitter highlights. :lalala:

4) The funniest I ever seen done was my brother used liguid nails and filled all the locks on the guys car. Then in a flash of brilliance....decided to liquid nail all the seams on the guys car....windows, doors, hood, trunk, etc. :rofl:

i hate vandalism , you should see what stupid biatches did to my g/f's bcp tc in her work parking lot. She had a two way pager alarm , went outside when it rang but was to late. i think all her damage was 3,000 in total.

If you are REALLY mad and they REALLY deserve it.. lay a package of bologna out all over thier car overnight.... they will love the dull polka-dot areas it leaves in the paint :rofl:

Oh, the bologna one is classic. I love it. (will file that one) :rofl:

Brake fluid is a good trick... it goes thru the paint and screws up the metal, so if you repaint, it fisheyes...


So I was told....[/innocent]

Um not completeley sure on Gun Laws in cali but I thawt the only way you could have a gun on you at all times is if your a peace officer or can prove because of your job you need it.(I think even then you can only legally carry at certain times.) Besides the point VIOLENCE begats more VIOLENCE Iam all for sticking up for yourself But to me (no offense) carrying a gun isnt a good thing. Besides we don;t want a pretty girl like her dead thats good for no one. ;)
