I ain't buying it, so you don't have to lie...

*When I try to fill the gas-tank in my Ford Explorer, the pump kicks like
it does when it's full, BUT MY TANK IS EMPTY! It takes 20 mins to
put 1/2 tank in this car because I have to give it baby sips of gasolina...

Turn the hose 90º

let's see

Three hubcaps
lost potato chips under driver's seat
back windows squeak horribly when I put them up
covering around base of stick shift is coming loose
switch on rear view mirror for blocking brights is broken
no AC
bad/stained chairs

so nothing I can't live with. It was only $1000

I don't have a car anymore but the last one I had

...had the steering wheel on the wrong side.
...required a whole friggin football field to turn 180 degrees around.
...had completely silent turn signals, so it was easy to leave them on by mistake.
...had a really inefficient A/C.

Other than that, it was pretty darned good. Good on gas, and kind of like Harry Potter's tent; small on the outside but incredibly roomy on the inside.

For a "efficent" car, sure does use a lot of gas...
Fine otherwise

My car has been banged up 3 times.....and considering that, it runs fairly well. I now have scratches on my bumper and a piece missing from the back panel from when I accidentally backed into someone's car a few weeks ago. It was a Jeep, so nothing happened to it. I swear the tiniest bump on my car does major damage. All fender benders I've been in, the other cars have driven away without a scratch or minimum damage. My Corolla gets excellent gas mileage, but I need a safe car now.....which is why a Jetta is my top choice.

I would hate you on the road People who leave their signals on is one of my driving pet peeves

Doesn't always take the CD in the player...I have to listen to my
music at my car's discretion.

There are many things wrong with my car

The lock on the driver's side of the car doesn't unlock from the outside. I have to unlock the doors through the passenger side.

The antenna is broken - that stupid thing has cut me badly twice already. I have a huge scar on my arm because of it

One of the windows doesn't open.

The trunk can only be opened by using both the key and pulling the thing that opens it, I don't know what it is called, but it is under the driver's seat, at the same time .

only AM radio... so i spent a bunch of money getting the doodads for playing my mp3 through it only to have it sound like shite through the crap speakers.

have to buckle my seatbelt into the middle clip as mine is busted

burns oil... in fact i just kind of let it go a bit dry

starter is going. one of these times i will be stranded.

glovebox is stuck but that is where the button to pop the gas door is hidden
so you have to wedge a screwdriver in to pry it open enough to reach the otherwise locked gas cap.

has a bit of a wobble. i guess i should check the tires already

what else do you want to know?

I just replaced the oil pan and auxillary water pump. I need a new lens for my drivers side brake light and I have a small dent under the trunk keyhole.

Mine is never clean, I wash and vacuum it every friday. By saturday it's a mess again! My 3 daughters lug everything but the kitchen sink in to it.

It's due for a service

it's super dirty right now

it's leaking oil even after a $700+ fix of whatever the problem was supposed to be

2 new front tires BUT one is defective & has a slow leak, I have yet to go back & address it

the antenna is fucking up - motor works but it doesn't catch so it makes this loud noise for about a minute & the antenna never goes down on its own

drivers side door handle has been broken off for over a year now - I can open it but it's just a little piece left It's over $100 to fix, fuck that



I figure it's only gonna hold up another 2 years anyway, then I'll have to face a car note all over again

So you knew the trick

a week ago, coming home from vacation in Orlando...the transmission went out...kaput...gone...game over...

It's in the shop as we speak...

Icant drive it ( I dont even have a learners licence yet and Im 37)

So far, there's nothing wrong with my car, except it needs to be cleaned badly.

Mine too. It looks like I live in it now, and it's never gotten to that point before.

PANDURITO said:

Not too much. Small dent in one of the fenders. Some of rubber stuff around the windows is trying to peel off. The A/C needs more of whatever the stuff is that makes it cold. It needs an oil change. Not bad for a 17-year-old car.

Steadwood said:

Oh Yeah!....and my Arielballs don't stick too well to the back window

My girls also got something sticky on my vans sliding door, almost like crazy glue....it won't come off!

needs a wash
needs new exhaust
has a oil leak, some where

but it gets us from a 2 b- thats the main thing "good car, good car"

and the brakes work
