Having been through this in settling the estates of family members, there has to be a limit somewhere. What you are suggesting is that either the executor should stand ready to pay all bills that come in late out of his own pocket and then try to collect from the heirs, or keep the estate open for an extra couple of years, keep paying lawyers and fees just on the chance that somebody might send in a late bill - and in the meantime, keep the assets tied up and not distributed to the heirs. I realize mistakes are made, but a business needs to get invoices out in a timely manner. Particularly ambulance services, who have to deal with situations where the customer may not be alive long after their service has been provided. The probate process and public notice to potential claimants provides a fair and reasonable way for people to get their claims in. Part of the job duties for somebody at the ambulance service is to read those notices in the newspapers in their service area to see if anyone who died owes them money. When I recently probated the estate of my grandmother, all of her affairs were in order, there were no outstanding bills and the funeral was pre-paid. Yet even with a very simple and straightforward situation, it still took over a year to settle the estate. A big chunk of that time was allowing for time for bills to come in, then publishing the public notices, then waiting to see if any more bills came in.

Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
