   It's very unlikely any of them have failed.  I cannot even count the number   
   of times I have seen cars blowing black smoke out the tailpipe which have   
   just got new oxygen sensors because the computer was throwing a code saying   
   the sensor was out of range in the rich direction.   
      
   The morons don't bother to figure out why it threw the code, they just swap   
   out parts at random.  They love swapping parts out.
