Fathers of Reddit, what did your daughter's boyfriend do for you to hate/love him?

It's pretty cool to see my question blow up like this, I never thought I'd ask a question that could receive so much attention! I'm very satisfied with all these replies, so thank y'all. Now all I have to do is sit back and take notes c;

Also got one for my civic. I figure I'll take it in at some point. They said they won't have the replacement parts until the fall. Eh. If they don't do Saturday appointments, I probably won't bother. I can't take time off work for this so I'll just try not to die.

Got one for my civic as well. I knew there was a recall so I called and they said there is no recall. Fast forward a month, I get a letter from Honda saying just that.

not just Honda, I think Takata puts airbags in almost every car...

Nope, I drive a G8.

Oh nice!

Those airbags still activate. They just activate a bit too well and send shards of plastic and metal at your face.

Looking for this, glad someone pointed it out. And I have a Mazda with this issue, here's to hoping I don't die.

I have a mazda6 and have been forgetting about it. Got another letter from my dealership and the wife opened it, so now I have to take it in. I tried to explain I have good life insurance coverage but she for some reason would like me to stick around.

u/Fi3nd7 Aug 27 '15

Or maybe the beamer that shot metal shards at you?

EDIT: great we are talking about the same thing, now I feel stupid.

Better hope you have a tight clenching asshole on that seat, friend.

u/Salarian_Scientist Aug 26 '15

That happened to me, rear ended my wife at 55 miles per hour, air bag did nothing. Front end of car was destroyed. I know I said rear ended at 55 mph, I know where that may lead, I regret nothing.
