FINDS MICHIGAN’S PUBLIC
INFRASTRUCTURE IS SHOWING ITS
AGE THE AMERICAN SOCIETY OF
CIVIL ENGINEERS HANDING OUT
GRADES AND SEVERAL AREAS LOCAL
FOREST RIDING MALONEY IS LIVE
TONIGHT WITH HISTORIAN ROD
MICHIGAN IS PASSING, BUT IT
SOUNDS LIKE JUST BARELY JUST
BARELY. KIMBERLY, LET’S TAKE A
LOOK AT THIS. IF YOUR KID CAME
HOME WITH C MINUS AS THE GRADE
POINT AVERAGE WOULD PROBABLY
SAY, HEY, WE NEED TO DO
SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. AND YES,
WE’RE CHANGING THE LETTER GRADE
SYSTEM, BUT FOR OUR PURPOSES
TONIGHT, THEY’RE SAYING A LOT OF
IT STARTS RIGHT HERE. 6 96 AND I
75 DRIVERS ON THIS CONSTRUCTION
CONSTRAINED ROAD. KNOW WHAT THE
CIVIL ENGINEERS BRAD EWART TOLD
US TODAY. MICHIGAN HOUSEHOLDS
STAND MORE THAN $1000 PER YEAR
IN ADDITIONAL VEHICLE OPERATING
COSTS DUE TO FAULTY ROAD
INFRASTRUCTURE. PLUS IS THE
HIGHEST GRADE MICHIGAN RECEIVED
MEANING JUST ABOVE MEDIOCRE OR
POOR, A GREATER SOLID WASTE
INFRASTRUCTURE RECEIVED. WE’RE
GETTING C’S OR REQUIRING MORE
ATTENTION AND THINGS LIKE
AVIATION, INLAND WATERWAYS,
PUBLIC PARKS RAIL AND WASTE
WATER. WE’RE GETTING C MINUSES
FOR OUR DAMS, SCHOOLS AND
TRANSIT. THE ENGINEERS HANDED
OUT D PLUS GRADES FOR OUR
DRINKING WATER AND BRIDGES. NOW
FROM DRONE FOUR. WE CAN SEE THE
TWO BIGGEST CONCERNS HERE. 75 AT
6 96 BUILT IN 1971 AND SEES
200,000 VEHICLES A DAY AND I 75
AT FOURTH STREET IN THE CITY,
WHICH THE STATE BUILT IN 1967
SEAS 110,000 VEHICLES TODAY AND
BOTH ARE LISTED AS STRUCTURALLY.
DEFICIENT. DEGRADE MEANS POURING
AT RISK OUR ENERGY, STORM, WATER
AND ROADS ALL HAVE THOSE GRADES
NOW AND WITH ENERGY. WE’VE ALL
LEARNED THE HARD WAY THAT WERE
SLIGHTLY ABOVE THE NATIONAL
AVERAGE IN WEATHER RELATED
OUTAGES, BUT IT TAKES NEARLY 40%
LONGER TO FIX THE DOWN LINES,
TRANSMISSION AND DISTRIBUTION
NETWORK FOR OUR GRID. AGING BE
HONEST DESIGN LIFE. AND WE WILL
NEED TO BE ADDRESSED TO PREVENT
WORSENING OUTAGES, PARTICULARLY
AS INCREASINGLY FREQUENT SEVERE
WEATHER EVENTS HIT THE REGION.
NOW BELIEVE IT OR NOT. EVEN WITH
THOSE GRADES, MICHIGAN IS
ROUGHLY IN LINE WITH THE
NATIONAL AVERAGE. THE ENGINEERS
SAY MICHIGAN HAS ACTUALLY
IMPROVED SLIGHTLY IN THE SCHOOLS
AREA AND ALSO IN THE ROADS WHERE
THE LEGISLATURE HAS BEEN POURING
A LOT OF MONEY, BUT THEY BELIEVE
THAT WHAT’S NEEDED MORE THAN
ANYTHING IS DEDICATED LONG TERM
FINANCING TO MAKE A SIGNIFICANT
IMPACT. A LOT OF RECOMMENDATIONS
HAD TO DO WITH HIGHER TAXES AND
FEES REPORTING LIVE ROD MELONI.
OKAY, ROD. A LOCAL COUPLE
WAITING ALMOST A YEAR FOR A CAR
PART CALLS HELP ME HANG TO
INVESTIGATE AND HE COMES TO THE
RESCUE. ELDERLY WHITE LAKE
COUPLE SHARED ONE CAR WHEN IT
NEEDED A REPAIR. THEY NEVER
EXPECTED IT WOULD TAKE 11 MONTHS
TO GET THEIR CAR FIXED. OUR
CONSUMER INVESTIGATOR HANK
WINCHESTER, SPOKE WITH THE
COUPLE AND THE DEALER AND HANK.
THINGS ARE MOVING NOW. YEAH THEY
CERTAINLY ARE. DE’VEON. GET IT,
WE UNDERSTAND, BUT THIS REPAIR
LASTING ALMOST A YEAR IT SEEMED
UNACCEPTABLE AND NOW THAT
VEHICLE WILL BE FIXED VERY SOON.
WHEN DIANE AND DAVID POSEY AX
2014 DODGE DART BROKE DOWN LAST
JUNE, THEY NEVER THOUGHT IT
WOULD TAKE ALMOST A YEAR TO GET
THE CAR BACK HOME. YOU KNOW,
IT’S VERY, VERY FRUSTRATING THE
VEHICLE, THE ONLY ONE THEY HAD
THE VEHICLE THEY RELY ON WAS IN
NEED OF A NEW SHIFTER, AND THEY
BROUGHT IT HERE TO SUBURBAN AND
FARMINGTON HILLS, AND THIS IS
WHERE THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN.
SINCE THEN. THEY FIRST RENTED A
CAR AND THEN IT GOT SO EXPENSIVE
. THEY ACTUALLY HAD TO GO OUT
AND BUY A VEHICLE SO THEY CAN
GET AROUND. TOWN. THIS AS THEY
ARE WAITING FOR THE REPAIR. AND
THEY JUST CAN’T SEEM TO GET ANY
ANSWERS. YOU CAN NEVER GET HOLD
OF ANYBODY. CALL CALL CALL.
NEVER GET ANY RESPONSE BACK PART
DELAYS. THEY WERE NOT UNCOMMON
DURING THE PANDEMIC AND IN THIS
POST PANDEMIC WORLD, BUT 11
MONTHS FOR APART AND REPAIR. IT
SEEMS A BIT MUCH SO I STARTED
MAKING CALLS. I SPOKE WITH THE
GENERAL MANAGER SUBURBAN HERE IN
FARMINGTON HILLS. HE’S NEW ON
THE JOB, BUT WAS VERY FOCUSED ON
GETTING THIS SOLVED. I’M HAPPY
TO REPORT AFTER WE GOT INVOLVED
OR REPLACEMENT PART HAS NOW BEEN
LOCATED. THE GM TELLING ME THIS
TODAY WE THANK YOU FOR BRINGING
THIS PROBLEM TO OUR ATTENTION.
WE IMMEDIATELY STARTED WORKING
ON SOLVING THE CUSTOMER’S ISSUE
. WE HAVE LOCATED APART OUT OF
STATE AND OUR SHIPPING IT
OVERNIGHT TO OUR DEALERSHIP. WE
SHOULD HAVE THIS PART INSTALLED
WEDNESDAY. PART DELAYS ARE NOT
UNCOMMON RIGHT NOW, BUT WE’RE
PLEASED WE WERE ABLE TO SOLVE
THIS PROBLEM. I AM VERY PLEASED.
WE LOVE THIS. THAT COUPLE NEEDED
THAT VEHICLE. THE GENERAL
MANAGER TEXTED ME JUST A SHORT
TIME AGO. THERE’S MORE TO IT’S
THE LANDIS’S ALSO AGREED TO A
BUNCH OF GOODWILL AS HE REFERS
TO IT, INCLUDING A RENTAL
REIMBURSEMENT INSURANCE
REIMBURSEMENT ON THE DART,
ADDING A VEHICLE PROTECTION PLAN
TO THE VEHICLE THAT THEY HAD
PURCHASED. THEY ARE WORKING IN A
BIG WAY TO MAKE THIS RIGHT AND
THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT IT SOUNDS
LIKE THAT PART IS ON ITS WAY TO
DETROIT VEHICLES SHOULD BE
REPAIRED. AND WEDNESDAY, I WILL
KEEP YOU UPDATED. WE ARE LIVE
HERE TONIGHT. HANK WINCHESTER.
HELP ME, HANK. BACK TO YOU.
ALRIGHT, HANG STUDY OF MORE THAN
260 MILLION VEHICLES REVEALS
WHICH ONES ARE MOST LIKELY TO
MAKE IT TO 250,000. MILES
ACCORDING TO I SEE CARS, THE
AVERAGE VEHICLE SOLD BETWEEN
2012 AND 2022. HAS A LESS THAN
12% CHANCE OF REACHING OR
EXCEEDING THE 250,000 MILE MARK,
BUT 23 VEHICLES HAVE A 20% OR
HIGHER CHANCE. NOT SURPRISINGLY
, 10 OF THOSE VEHICLES ARE
PICKUP TRUCKS. TOPPING THE
ENTIRE LIST IS THE F 3 50 SUPER
DUTY WITH A NEARLY 50% CHANCE OF
HITTING 250,000, MILES, THE
TOYOTA TUNDRA AND FORD F 2 50
SUPER DUTY PICKUPS ALSO MADE THE
TOP FIVE TOP BRAND OVERALL.
TOYOTA EIGHT MODELS AMONG THE
TOP 23. THE SUV CATEGORY HIGHEST
MARKS WENT INTO THE TOYOTA LAND
CRUISER, THE TOYOTA SEQUOIA AND
THE HONDA PILOT. THREE PASSENGER
CARS MADE THE LIST THE HONDA
ACCORD, TOYOTA AVALON AND THE
TOYOTA CAMRY HERE. A LOT OF THE
SAME NAME, RIGHT HONDA. ALRIGHT
NICE STRETCH OF WEATHER AHEAD,
BUT SOME RAIN TO GET THROUGH
FIRST, KIM YES, BUT ONLY FOR A
FEW HOURS AND THEN TOMORROW
SUNSHINE WILL RETURN BUT EXACT
TRACK 40 RADAR IS SHOWING RAIN
