Ron Ananian, The Car Doctor - November 29, 2025 - Hour 1 - When You Bring the Wrong Van… and Other Shop Adventures - (855)560-9900

This week on Ron Ananian, The Car Doctor, Ron answers a listener email about a Ford Transit rear brake job that turned into a wrong-year/ wrong-parts headache, then explains a 2021 Jeep Gladiator start/stop battery issue and the simple reset trick that brings it back to life. He lays out a fast winter car prep checklist—tires, batteries, coolant, washer fluid, oil, belts—and closes with how TPMS really works in cold weather. Plus, guest Dale Ross from the National Auto Body Council shares how the Recycled Rides program puts refurbished vehicles into the hands of veterans in need.
