The cable broke on our outdoor pressure washing lift, two months after a complete inspection of all of our lifts! One never knows, accidents happen. Car fortunately has minimal damage. Will post pictures of the lifting and repair later

I'm lucky that I didn't have a catastrophe. The 1st 18 mo's that I owned my lift, I would leave the car lifted on it for days and even weeks at a time. One night while watching the News I saw a report on an Earthquake. It then dawned on me what could happen in that I live in SoCal. I now lower the car as soon as possible and definitely overnight. If the wheels are off I lower it to inches off the ground. Hindsight is 20/20 and Shit happens! What happened to George happens. I believe he showed "Due Diligence" by having his equipment inspected and the liability should be upon the company that did the inspection. JMHO. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
