ICE Bought Thousands Of Flashy Patrol Cars And Agents Don’t Want To Drive Them

Image
ICE bought thousands of branded vehicles agents say are useless. Marked trucks and SUVs allegedly tip off suspects in raids. Agency says the vehicles are used to support operations nationwide. After spending millions on a fleet of vehicles that looks like it was styled by a campaign merch team with access to a wrap shop, President Trump ‘s ICE agency now finds itself with a very awkward problem: agents reportedly don’t want to drive the things and have hidden them in a parking lot. ICE ordered roughly 2,500 marked vehicles in the second half of 2025, ditching its long-standing reliance on unmarked cars for something far less discreet. The new look featured dark navy paint, red and white striping, gold logos, and the slogan “Defend the Homeland” splashed down the sides. Some even wore “President Donald J. Trump” in gold lettering on the rear window, the livery itself having reportedly been inspired by Trump’s private jet . More: An $8.21 Gas Price In LA Shows Just How F...

That Strange Clicking Noise In Honda’s Prologue Is Now A Lawsuit

Image
Honda faces lawsuit over persistent Prologue axle noise. Two owners cite popping and clicking after early delivery. Dealers replaced CV axles but noises reportedly remain. Honda’s all-electric Prologue has found itself under legal scrutiny following reports of some rather odd drivetrain noises. Not long after the company warned US dealers that certain 2024–2026 Prologue models might require repairs due to clicking or ratcheting-type sounds from the drive axles, a lawsuit followed. Owners say the noises can linger even after a trip, sometimes more than one, to the dealership. A class action lawsuit filed in Pennsylvania names two Prologue owners who say their SUVs developed unusual noises from the front axle. One of them, Ashley Custer, leased a 2024 Prologue in May 2025 and soon began hearing the sounds, prompting a trip to the dealer with just 4,039 miles (6,500 km) on the odometer.

GM Warns Some Pickups Could Stall Even With Fuel Still Onboard

Image
GM has issued two new recalls involving four different vehicles. A software issue can result in stalls on the Silverado and Sierra. Chevy Express and GMC Savana Cutaways could have bad tires. Ford may hold the unofficial title of recall king , but General Motors is now launching two new campaigns of its own. Together, they affect a combined 12,613 vehicles across two separate issues. A vast majority of them are 2025-2026 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 and GMC Sierra 3500 pickups. Impacted models are equipped with gasoline engines and dual fuel tanks. The problem is related to a rear fuel pump that may not transfer enough gas to the front tank, causing an engine stall.

An investigation determined that an incorrect engine control module software calibration...

Why The World’s Biggest Automakers Suddenly Keep Changing CEOs

Image
The auto industry is seeing leadership turnover rise. Shorter tenures now reflect growing board pressure. Today’s CEOs must manage EVs, AI, and complex tech. It’s a bad time to be the big boss of a global car company. At least, that is what recent events suggest. Porsche, Nissan, Stellantis, Volvo, Renault, Jaguar Land Rover, and Hyundai have all decided to reshuffle their leadership. Toyota and BMW are expected to follow later this year. So many of the world’s largest car brands hit the reset button simultaneously, and it says a lot about the state the industry is in. Pressure from new Chinese rivals, the inevitable electric future, and buyer reluctance are just some of the challenges these legacy automakers don’t seem to be able to get right. A Legacy No More? For decades, the world’s automakers relied on their huge footprints, engineering depth, and long-established supply chains. Those strengths now are causing friction. EVs require fewer components, software upg...
