Ok, let's start with it needs a tune up. What's that? it needs a new O2 sensor? Ok, but what about the sqeaking noise? Ohhh that's the brake pads glazed over, so it needs new brake pads too....and also the rotors need turning. All that will fix the blinking 'check engine' light right? What do you mean "No, that's another repair needed"?
Ugh...that's how my day has gone.....so I repeat...car repairs suck!
Cute cartoon! Definitely feel your pain! Our 'check engine light' came on recently and a mere $1000 later everything's fine. (Other things were also fixed.) But we still have a squeaky serpentine belt that's connected somehow to the A/C compressor. After they tried to fix it five times last year (four times at their expense), they said our only recourse is to let it squeak. No squeak equals no A/C. But we love our van . and it IS 17 years old!
ReplyDeleteGuess I can't complain too much...the repairs didn't cost nearly as much as we thought they would. Knock on wood!
