“Stump Pat” Episode 6: A Rookie Driver Seeks Advice From The Master Technician

For the past 6 weeks, we here at CARCHEX have been revealing the real car questions and concerns racking America’s brains and soliciting the help of “America’s Trusted Mechanic”, Pat Goss to give us answers.  We are now nearing the end of our “Stump Pat” video series and have yet to find an auto safety, performance, or care question that Pat cannot answer.

Passing the driving test for the first time and getting a new car is an exciting and thrilling occasion in a teenager’s life. Most of us can remember the freeing feeling we felt when we could finally drive ourselves wherever we wanted. In our 6th episode of “Stump Pat” we meet the youngest of our video participants and newest driver, Diamond Melrose.

After recently getting her drivers license and first car, Diamond wants to do anything she can to keep her vehicle running for as long as possible. Diamond turns to the “Master Technician” Pat Goss for advice.

To find out what Pat teaches Diamond about the dangers of putting the wrong kind of gas in her new car, watch episode 6 of “Stump Pat” here!


Tales of the Bizarre Starring Pat Goss!

CARCHEX Spokesman Pat Goss Shares Stories About the Wacky & Weird

Master Mechanic Pat Goss from TV’s MotorWeek has seen almost everything you can see when it comes to auto repair.

Engine melted? Seen it.

Water in the gas tank? Seen it.

Windshield washer fluid shooting inside the car? I don’t know if he’s seen that, but that would be pretty cool.

The following video is the first in a series of the bizarre and odd that we will bring to you. This is where Pat talks about the strangest car problems that have ever come through Goss’ Garage. And remember, if you have extended vehicle protection from CARCHEX, most of these wacky problems won’t cost more than a modest deductible.

Enjoy and beware!


The Value of Extended Vehicle Protection From CARCHEX

As cars have increasingly become more complicated and sophisticated, it’s important now more than ever to look into owning extended vehicle protection.

Car parts that could have been replaced for a couple hundred dollars years ago now bring in bills totaling in the thousands. This is where CARCHEX comes in.

An extended car warranty can cover owners whose cars have lived passed their original factory warranty but are still in good, reliable condition.

Once a car has lived passed its original factory warranty, you’d be amazed at what some repairs cost.

In the video below, our resident car expert and CARCHEX spokesman, Motorweek’s Pat Goss, speaks to the value and benefit provided to owners of extended vehicle protection from CARCHEX.

CARCHEX has your back and you can relax  knowing that with a car warranty, your wallet won’t be hit hard by the repair shop. We’ll work with you and the repair shop to cover the cost of your car’s maintenance needs. Get protected today and check out our website to speak with a live specialist to discuss getting covered by CARCHEX.
