They don't squeal or grind. I've had no previous problems. Even if I pump them they still go to the floor.

My friend bought a car for her live-in boyfriend to drive in the winter (we're in Canada) as his Mustang was no good in the cold.

Before she bought it (second-hand), she called her Insurance company (broker) to make sure they would cover him. She gave them all the info they needed in order to make a proper assessment, INCLUDING the fact that he has three speeding tickets under his belt. The broker said that he was OK and gave her a rate, & the go-ahead to buy the car.

Now, the Insurance company sent my friend a letter saying that in fact, her boyfriend WAS NOT covered, and that they WILL NOT insure him, because of the speeding tickets he's incurred. Furthermore, they are asking HER for a letter from her confirming that she will NOT allow him to drive the car!

So now, she's got an extra car and is severely out-of-pocket!

Shouldn't the insurance company bear the responsibility of this, given they told her he was covered? She wouldn't have bought the car otherwise? Help!

Surely a soft-top should be lighter than a hard-top fixed roof car. Maybe it's the mechanics in the soft-top...

I drive a 1994 Plymouth Acclaim (est. 150,000miles) 3.0l V6...it has been frequently dying on me with my RPMs drop or I come to fast stops (which could also be the RPMs). It starts back up right away but if I don't put it in drive and hit the gas fast enough it will cut out again. The lights and stereo stay on, but the power steering is gone as well.

Can anyone hint as to what the problem may be? I checked my oil, it may need to be changed but it's probably not urgent because I changed it a few months ago and haven't driven it much over the summer. Any help is appreciated!!!

I want a new car anyway so if you have bad news, tell me now so I don't get stranded :P

I have this '85 Ford Bronco that I bought 4 months ago and I can’t stand driving it. I was wondering if I could trade it in at a dealership for a 2006 or 2007 Toyota Yaris. I don’t really understand all about trading in a car so could someone explain the trading in process and if this trade is possible.

I was going down this windy road last night and the road was wet. The speed limit was 25 and I was going 28. All the sudden I lose control and hit a dirt hill on the side of road on my passenger side. My hop cap fell off, and now my car shakes when I go over 40 miles an hour. I am taking it to my mechanic in two days, but I want to make sure it is saf e to drive til then.
