    While waiting for Radiator Springs in 2015 it broke down. I was in line for 2 1/2 hours. We eventually returned later in the day and it reopened and I rode it.

    Oh and speaking of Cars, LEAVE FRONTIERLAND ALONE!!!!!!!

      My Daughter and I were stuck inside The Indiana Jones Attraction about 7 years ago. It was approximately 20 minutes and people were wondering how much longer. My Daughter and I enjoyed the stop as we got to see some if the attraction with the lights on. I always say I wish they would slow the attractions down a little bit.

    What a HUGE mistake to bulldoze Tom Sawyers Island and remove Rivers of America at Disney World Florida. Common sense dictates the pollution spewing Tomorrow Land Speedway should have been replaced in that location with the new Cars attraction ride. Dumb, Dumb, Dumb.

    Hahaha I was actually stuck on this ride during this instance. It was 37 minutes. Usually they give you a fast track single use pass for your troubles but they didn’t this time

    I had a similar experience in 2016. At DCA’s closing time, myself and my oldest daughter, (who had just turned 5) were the absolute LAST riders of the night on Radiator Springs Racers. Everything went fine until the fork in the road, where you either go to Luigi’s Tires or Ramone’s Paint Shop. Our car stopped dead at the fork, right next to Sarge and Fillmore. And there we stayed for over 15 minutes, the ONLY two humans in the show room there. The animatronics were all still operating normally, going through their scripts and motions. Our seatbelts were fastened tight, so we could not move. Finally I texted my wife, who was with our newborn out near the Carthay Circle area. She ran over to the RSR entrance and found a castmember to let them know that we were stuck inside all by ourselves. At last, a voice came over the loudspeaker to let us know they were gonna get us out of there. Shortly thereafter, the ride continued as normal and we returned to the exit, albeit a little freaked out and frazzled by the experience, which was a bit creepy feeling. To compensate, the castmember who greeted us at the end of the ride gave us a pass to return to the front of the line with up to 8 guests total anytime, no expiration date.
    Made for a great story, but I’d prefer to never relive that again.
