After it rains, the inside of my headlights get moisture in them. It doesn't effect them, it just looks terrible. Any ideas on how to make it go away and stop it from doing that again???

I'm concerned for my daughter. Twice while making tight turns in a parking lot she has lost steering and the car engine turned off. Dealer says they can't find the problem.

ok, so yesterday i rear-ended a van in front of me, as i had trouble pressing the brake firmly enough. it is my first car accident ever. i was going at a reasonable speed (somewhere between 20-30 mph i think), as nothing terribly serious happened.
Damages incurred:
-a slight dent in the rear of the lady's van
-minor dents in my front bumper and hood (part covering the engine), and a destroyed right headlight in my car
-no injuries whatsoever to any living being (yay!)

I somehow pulled myself together, made it early to my interview, and drove safely home after that accident. Thank god the lady driving the van was very nice about the whole thing. I was afraid she would yell at me.
My family was very nice about the whole thing as well.
However, I had trouble sleeping that night because I kept thinking what if a pedestrian was there? Is it possible to switch to parking or neutral gear if one has trouble with brakes, even if the car is moving? Otherwise I would have to swerve!

Please Help me!!!

Recently my wife caught by speed camera driving my friend’s car. She has valid international driving licence. Although she has insurance, it is not valid because I have put her name as second driver and added as having full UK driving licence to save some money. My friend’s car has full comprehensive insurance. She sent her driving licence copy with notice letter but no reply since a month. I am bit worried.

My question is do they check the insurance of my wife when they impose points on her? Also in few months she is hoping to get full UK licence so do the points on international licence will carry on new one? When she was driving she already had provisional licence, so does she get the point on provisional licence and international licence become invalid?

Thanks in advance…

Most scion box cars I see are missing their hubcaps. WHY? All they have are the black metal rim that the caps would otherwise conceal.

Why are motorcycle engines able to operate at RPM's such as 12,000 and above? Whereas car engines are much lower. the highest you really see in production cars is 8500-9000.

I'm planin on gettin a paint job, but i dunno what would be more applicable. I thought about Candy Apple Red as a color, but i question myself. should i go with somethin else? cheap, flashy, or expensive?

The book on my 1999 Ford Windstar says every 5,000 miles. The dealership put a sticker in the car that says change after 3,000. The vehicle has 46,000 miles on it. So should I change it every 3 or 5 thousand? Oh, I drive on two miles of gravel per day and the rest is highway and I drive about 1,000 miles per month. Thanks!

When I start it it randomly "cranks" I take it to Nissan and they cannot get it to repeat. It does it like every other time I start the car. I start it and it won't start at all it just "cranks" and then dies. Eventually it starts and is fine. Please help - my warranty is almost up.

i've been told NOT to take my car to places like Jiffy Lube because they're just a bunch of kids who don't really know what they're doing. Are these places reliable or should I find somebody else?

Jetta 91, manual trans, on a turn i tried to put the 2nd gear, made a loud noise and it started knocking. While being in neutral with the clutch un-pressed knocks, you push the clutch and it stops. but when in movement, it still knocks. Could it be the clutch or do i need a whole new trans?

There's a rattling noise from under the hood and a few days ago the check engine light came on. I went to get it checked by a computer at Auto Zone and they gave me a code...PO422...main catalyst efficiency for bank 1 is below threshold for the current engine operating conditions. What's all that mean? It must be fixed but I just want to know what it is so I don't get screwed at the mechanic.
