Is there anybody getting equivalent rss problem? Anyone who knows kindly respond. Thnkx auto windshield replacement. Truly, this article is really one of the very best in the history of articles. And I found this one pretty fascinating and it should go into my collection. Very good work! I suppose even a rock doesn't have the overall density of a spark plug, unless it happened to be a lead rock, or iridium. I've heard that some car thieves use a chunk of porcelain for this task as well.
You hold the sparkplug in your hand with the metal tip sticking out. Swing your hand at the window and it'll break. A small sharp rock would be hard to wrap your hand aroud though a smallish oblong one would work, the sparkplug just happens to have good characteristics for concealment and a nice shape for your hand.
I've seen little tools with a metal or ceramic tip for breaking car windows from the inside in the event of an emergency. It's a similar idea. You smash it into your window, the sharp point concentrates the forces and then there's bits of safety glass all over the place. I've full on punched the rear window of a car in highschool and it didn't break and I'm a big guy, it just sort of warped in the frame like plastic momentarily.
Ceramics can be HARD. Knifemakers have experimented with ceramic blades that go off the metal hardness scale. Boker sold one for a while, maybe still does. From what I hear, when the blade finally gets dull, you certainly can't sharpen it with a wetstone. Just about anything metal in an automobile engine could be made of ceramic, and auto manufacturers have experimented with this. Ceramic tiles have also been used for the heat shields of spaceship re-entry modules.
Someone more technical can expound on these fascinating tidbits and correct my loose terminology, if interested I always thought that a spring loaded center punch was the preferred method of entry due to its convenience and silence.
That was the method used to break into my car. Too bad for the thief that he was observed, reported to the police and arrested. Spark plug pieces have hard sharp points, structurally quite similar to the window punches used by emergency rescure personnel to shatter tempered glass windows.
Read a bit more about emergency window removal here. It's much easier, of course, to punch out the side or front windshields, which are made of safety glass and are designed to break into neat, almost square little pieces. For whatever reason, the side seems to be more easily broken than the front, which often dents and spiderwebs before actually busting in.
Hrm, come to think of it I accidently broke a fishtank when I was a kid with a marble. I was squeezing the marble between my thumb and index finger to shoot it, it flung off in a random direction into our fishtank and shattered it. Glass or ceramic doesn't have much give to it, they're not malleable so none of the kinetic energy gets wasted in deformation. You could probably throw a piece of sparkplug at a window and shatter it. Yeah, I knew that but the car had stopped at a stop sign and I had to run to catch it.
Plus, a sparkplug is both hard and easily concealed, as others have said above, and it's much more plausible to be walking around with one of those than a spring-loaded punch. Yeah, the front and possibly rear windows of cars are made of laminated glass to keep you from flying out in an accident.
I assume the side windows are still breakable so you can break out of a car if you need to escape. My truck was once broken into with a spark plug fragment. The cop said they are referred to as "Ninja Rocks. At least, that's what the cop told me. Here is s slight bit of info. Unfortunately, the dealer did not give me a copy of the report, and I just discovered that the car had a severe accident six weeks prior to my purchase.
I suspect the dealer has a legal obligation to present accurate information to me at the time of purchase but wonder if it has any liability 10 years later? I realize the dealer may claim that the data did not get reflected in the Carfax report in the short period between the accident and resale, but the current report shows the car was serviced at this dealer for two years prior to its being sold to me.
I find it difficult to believe the dealer did not know about the damage caused by the accident. Do I have any recourse? A: Carfax information is only as good as the intel it receives. Sometimes this is timely, and sometimes not.
Sometimes repairs are done and no information is forwarded to Carfax. Much of the information about accidents comes from police reports, but there is no telling how quickly those reports are submitted. Sometimes, people have their cars fixed by shade tree mechanics and body men. No report. The used-car department may not have been informed by the collision repair department, and many dealers don't even have their own body shops. They farm the work out.
Finally, the seller has no obligation, even a goodwill promise, after all this time. Since you drove the car trouble free for 10 years, count your blessings.
