Of course I have missed the voluntary replacement and they are not on the settlement page and I can not unlock with a BIC, but I do not want to chance it, plus I already picked up a OnGuard Pitbull at a great price, which is adequate for the moto and cycles.
I guess i have two questions:
Anybody know of a way to verify which ones? I called and they said any tubular lock from them is possible.
Assuming they are bad should I just chuck them in the garbage? Seems like a waste there has to be some good use for them?
I use an old tubular lock to lock up my grill outside in the summertime. The type of theif who will steal a grill is lazy and won't want to fiddle with a lock when he can steal my neighbors unlocked grilll.
