Some of the problems were from user error, and I am not saying that is the issue. I am talking about problems such as the screw that holds the clutch assembly on, totally breaking on my Monsoon. I didn't even have the car long, and the screw broke in the shaft destroying everything. I had to replace the shaft, flywheel, shoes and springs, bearings and spacers, clutchbell, and the screw. I have also had to replace both servos, as well as replacing the carb. And now the motor is shot. I could see these issues coming about after several months of decent driving, but not within 2-3 months, of less than moderate driving due to all the down time. Those are some serious parts to be replacing in the first 2 months of a car. Not to mention the radio issue these had, which put me down for almost 2 weeks till I could find another radio. I understand that every model is going to have issues, such as screws needing to have locktight, and small matters like that. But the problems, I have had have been major issues that have caused more down time, than play time. By the time I get both my cars running again, I will have spent enough money I could have bought another car, if not two. Don't get me wrong I am glad warpaint got help like he did. I just wish that after investing almost $1000 in 2 cars, that I could have gotten some better assistance from the company and the seller of my cars. Especially with all the posts I have made with issues on my cars. I finally figured it was time I released how I felt about these cars, instead of holding back hoping something good would happen with them.
