You'd be surprised what happens at dealers. Your dead battery was probably
from one of the lot lizards not turning the key all the way off, or not
closing the door. Happens all the time at my work. Today we had a Mazda MPV
that was waiting for the customer to pick up. It was in the day before for a
domelight problem. Anyways, for no reason at all (really!!) the right front
tire blew up, and tore the fender almost all the way off!!!!!! Scared the
crap out of everyone!!! We checked the other three tires, and found over
100lbs of pressure in each tire! Customer probably looked at tires, didnt
realize that they deflect under weight, and kept adding air until they were
perfectly round!
