My car died back in December, as some of you may recall, and my grandparents wanted to downgrade to one car at around the same time, so they gave me their Buick for Christmas. I recently started working as a delivery driver for Dice pizza using this car. /bg
I am currently sitting in the waiting room for my family's mechanic. I brought my car here for an oil change and to have them look at my brakes (they've been noisy and my steering wheel shakes if I need to brake hard) to see what's wrong.
Apparently, whoever changed the brake pads last did a "slap job" (put pads on, don't make anything fit anything else) which means I now have perfectly fine brake pads, but I need the rotors replaced. And I have a tie end that needs to be replaced. And I need my tires balanced. And I need a tire rotation. And an alignment. And new tires.
Today, I'm doing a rotation, replacing the front rotors and pads, and my oil change. Next week, I get to get an alignment, replace the back rotors (if they are jacked up, they might be ok), and fix or replace the tie end. And I need 4 new tires as I had a flat that was patched that is moving to the front, and the ones moving back need to be replaced soon. (And I need to go back to the doctor for the lab work, and I need to go to the dentist again, and and and)
