[[File:Redlineo.png|thumb|300px]]In ''[[Cars 2]]'', Rod was first seen on the [[Oil Rig|oil rig]] disguised as a Gremlin. Talking to [[Professor Zündapp|Professor Z]] about the [[Professor Z's EMP weapon|EMP weapon]] asking what it actually does as it was shown to be a standard TV camera. The professor quickly reveals that the camera is extremely dangerous and tells Rod that the camera is valuable equipment and wants him to make sure it is properly secured. Rod gives a command to [[Muggsy Liftsome]] to close the box the camera is in. Rod later came to the Tokyo party to exchange info with [[Finn McMissile]], but his plan was infiltrated, and he was ambushed by [[Acer]] and [[Grem]], who both proceeded to beat him up, damaging him heavily. When [[Tow Mater|Mater]] comes across them, Rod passes the device with the info onto Mater's undercarriage when no one was looking.

When [[Mater]] comes across them, Rod passes the device with the info onto Mater's undercarriage when no one was looking.


After doing this, Rod was captured by Grem and Acer, who brought him to Professor Z in their secret lair, where he was restrained on a dynamometer with parking boots on his front wheels which prevents them from opening his guns, while his rear wheels were put between cylinders. He was then pumped with the fuel "[[Allinol]]", which he claimed was good for cars. However, Professor Z demonstrated, on the agent himself, what happens when cars fueled with Allinol are exposed to an electromagnetic pulse generator disguised as a camera. As Allinol began to react, the lemons demanded to know who Rod passed the intel to, putting up a slideshow of all the cars he made contact with. Rod resists, but he has an involuntary reaction at an image of Mater, which Professor Z catches. Rod could only show horror at allowing an oblivious civilian tow truck to become a target, before he was killed from the spontaneous explosion of Allinol.
