My dad took my car with him today, because we needed a headlight assembly replaced (for the second time) and he can do it with more savings than we'd get at the shop here. We just had our front brakes replaced last week ($500) because they had to be done urgently, but we waited for dad on this job. While he had a look over the car, he called me with the bad news. My car needs a new transmission. She's an old car and not worth a $4000 repair, so we aren't replacing it with a new transmission to save some $$, but the two my dad ordered in today failed the testing so he's still looking for one that he'd actually put in my car.
We're about tapped out when it comes to car repairs. We can't take much more of this. But we can't really afford another car right now either. Can I please ask for some car vibes that this will be our last major repair for a while? (Our rear brakes are at 40%, and my summer tires are in rough shape, but other than that nothing else please!)
