The story

Jeff and Amy Taylor are driving from Boston to San Diego in a new Jeep Grand Cherokee.

Inspecting the engine, Jeff discovers some wiring that is not connected.

Returning to the diner, Jeff is approached by Billy, a seemingly slow‑witted mechanic, who claims that Amy left with several men and claims that the police should not be trusted.
