Jalopolized

The act of having a nice, modern item replaced with an old, delapidated, piece of junk.

Originally used in context with a car, or a "jalopy." Now used for just about any item.

I dropped my I-phone 24 in the toilet, and my mother jalopolized me by making me use my brothers old, out-dated flip phone.

My car is in the shop, the rental car sucks - I've been jalopolized!!
