Some pros

  • Had some fun adding a bunch of cars to the garage, great to see that it's being stored and I can still see them after logging out and logging back in
  • Nice and focused on essential functions
  • The example comment under DTC P1120 very clearly illustrated the value proposition of this platform for me: "common causes of this code include..." - as a user, this type of information is what I would want to see first when exploring what's going on with my car. Maybe in the future, the most helpful comments on a trouble code can be either voted or stickied to the top within each thread?
  • 'Contact us' email thing works well.. it does a thing that splits my window into two (one side keeping me on the page, other side opening a new email form) which I've never seen!

Some cons

  • On the main board with a list of DTCs, my instinct was to click on '3 comments' to see the discussion instead of the DTC itself (probably conditioned from using reddit and other discussion boards) but '3 comments' wasn't clickable. Maybe this can be turned into a link as well? ----- Addressed! (6/9/20)
  • I was left wanting to know what happens when I input a DTC under 'Add Trouble Code' - is it meant to keep a record of DTCs for each of my cars? What action would I be able to take with it afterwards?
  • Now that I'm thinking about it, I think once the board is full of codes, a DTC search function would be really useful on the main page.
