As much as vehicles today have improved when it comes to safety, it goes without saying that the potential for collisions still remains. Since accidents can happen to even the most attentive of drivers, we recommend that everyone install a dash cam in their vehicle. Fortunately, one of Walmart's best sellers, the Nexpow T7J6 HD Dual Dash Cam, is currently marked down to $36 from its usual $80 list price. A dash cam (dashboard-mounted camera) is designed to capture footage through your windshield in the event of an incident. Drivers and insurance companies alike promote dash cams as a way to expedite claims when another vehicle is involved but no witness was present. In other words, it's your word against theirs, and a dash cam ensures the truth is documented on camera. Nexpow T7J6 HD Dual Dash Cam, $36 (was $80) at Walmart This one from Nexpow stands out because it features two cameras — front and rear — a rarity at this price point. While the front camera records in 1080p full HD with a wide-angle lens and an f/1.5 aperture, the rear camera captures video at 720p with an f/1.5-aperture lens. Both are equipped with an onboard G-sensor, which tells the camera to start recording automatically when a collision is detected. It also works as a 24-hour parking monitor. This deal is being offered exclusively online for a limited time. So, head to Walmart to grab the Nexprow T7J6 HD Dual Dash Cam while it's only $36! About the Author Gabe Carey View Profile

When diagnosing a problem in any modern vehicle, your first plan of attack should be to check under the steering wheel. Then plug in a diagnostic tool to your OBD2 port and find out what's wrong—or at least narrow down the possibilities. If you're not sure which OBD2 code reader to buy, we've found the perfect one for you at Walmart. Right now, the bestselling Cicpap OBD2 scanner is just $16, down 70% from its original list price. Cicpap OBD2 Scanner $16, (was $55) at Walmart While high-end scanners can set you back hundreds, if not thousands of dollars, this compact code reader covers all the basics at an extremely affordable price. In addition to reading and erasing codes, it has a full library of DTCs you can reference to decipher what the returned code actually means. You can also review the car's performance with data flow monitoring and real-time curve analysis as it runs. At 7.9 x 5 x 1.7 inches, it's small enough to fit in your bag or in some pockets. While it lacks a full-color display, the black and white screen is clear and well-backlit, making it easy to read fault codes and graphs. It also has a generous 2.5-foot cable, and an intuitive set of buttons that make it easy to navigate through menus. It supports six languages and it can test for emissions readiness prior to your next state inspection. 'I purchased this item for my daughter's use in her somewhat older vehicle,' said one reviewer. 'An exceptional OBD2 scanner,' another shopper raved. 'Functions flawlessly and executes all tasks as specified. 'Compact and simple to operate,' a third customer remarked. 'I like how little this gadget is and how easy it is to connect into your car. I tested it out on my vehicle when I first received it. There were no error codes discovered.' Plug an OBD2 reader into your vehicle and prepare in advance for any necessary repairs. You might as well, since this one is only $16 for a limited time. About the Author Gabe Carey View Profile
