I don't remember watching Cars 2, but did the OBD port say anything about this?
Hopefully it doesn't need to be said that representation is important in media and I don't want to diminish anyone with a disability. This is just a joke.
I didn't mind it, but I think I would have liked it more if Lightning was more central. I think Mater is a better supporting character than lead. Or maybe I just didn't like seeing people be mean to him for 2 hours.
They weren't trying to be mean, for the most part, they either didn't get him or they underestimated him. By the end, all of that is resolved and Mater is known as the hero he always was!
Lemon cars have either shit reliability to the extreme or cars with a glaring insane flaw such as the infamous Ford pinto that would explode into flames if it got rear ended.
Good example is the 2016-2021 Honda Civic! Tons of electrical issues, and refrigerant that is incompatible with the ac condenser, so you sink thousands into your AC for it to stop working after a couple of months.
i had a CR-V which had a really great electrical issue where it would drain the battery if you didn't start it every day. The dealer suggested that i should have somebody go to the airport and start the car for me every day while i was working out of town 0_o
This may or may not be an official definition, but in my retail experience a lemon anything is something that has been returned as defective three or more times.
I have no idea the formal definition but locally around me it refers to a car that has been sold for far too much due to the near guaranteed chance it will break down within the next dozen drives.
