Cars & Transportation - 9 March 2007

I just took my leased 2006 F-150 in to have the brake lights looked at. The dealership (I moved so I went to the closest one) told me that wires got fried and they had to order new wireing harnesses. That will be 5 total days without the truck. They said they could only provide a lease vehicle though Enterprise and would cover only $28.00 per day towards costs. Is something wrong here? I only have 13000 miles on the truck and I have to pay because Ford has a problem with their vehicle! No wonder Ford is losing marketshare! Has anyone else had this sort of problem getting a loner?

Does anyone know where the air filter is on a 1995 Dodge Neon Sport Coupe?
Any answers will be appreciated -- a link to a pic would be even better :)

Thanks!

I have only just noticed that all the other emails i have had from ebay have a security key in the corner but the one with the invoice hasn't. Have i been ripped off and if so what can i do?

Every time I get cut up, or some idiot tailgates, they're always driving a beemer. Is there some sort of test to prove you can't drive before they'll sell you one?

At the moment airbus is going through some turbulent moments, with its A380 program. But is this aircraft going to be a success, are the airlines going to be able to sell so many seats on just one flight. What are you views about this super jumbo.

I currently own a 2006 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo IX. Well after owning this car for over a year I am not satisfied. The car is great handling and performance wise and that's about it! I am looking for a car with comfortable leather seating for long trips, ammenities, and last but not least RELIABILITY. I have been reading numerous amounts of reviews about all of the above cars. I noticed that MB and BMW seem to have the most repairs of all. But then again there were only 6-7 negative reviews out of 200. So I am curious what you guys have to say. I don't want to do what I did a year ago and regret this car. I was going to go with the 2002-2004 MB C230 Kompressor Coupe until I started to really read the reviews on Mercedes. I really hope somone can give me honest feedback on these cars and perhaps owned one themselves. Thanks!

I have a 97 Cadillac DeVille with a Northstar motor. I have to keep adding coolant (dextrol at $17/gallon!!) I can smell antifreeze once in a while, dont seem to be leaking any. I am really starting to notice it when I back up into my exhaust. I assume this means I am burning it through my motor.... so obviously I know it needs to be brought in. I have an appt for next week - but dont want to get screwed because I am not exactly "car savvy". Can you please tell me what you suspect it is, and what I can expect to have done to fix it??
Thank you so much!

I have a fiberglass boat im restoring. Im wanting to know if i can use good auto paint with a clear coat or do you have to use marine paint? my boat is in water maybe in water 2-3 days at a time, 3-4 times a year. Not alot. Also while doing some sanding ive noticed hair cracks(like stress cracks throughout the boat) in the fiberglass, is this something i should be worried about. Who ever owned boat before me looks like the slapped a sloppy paint job on it and painted over everything. I tested a area with some filler and primer seems that cracks cover with little work.

I have a 97 Cavalier that when in 4th gear (around 55-70mph) you can feel a lurch in the engine. Almost as if the engine wants to quit running or like it can't find the right gear to be in. Any ideas?

I am wondering because I was considering working for CSX and I wasn't sure about the future of railroads and whether or not I would still have a job and be able to retire after a number of years or if we wouldn't need railroads anymore in the near future.

Hello,

I went to the gas station three days ago and now my car is broke down! Found out that the gas station was pumping water in everyone's cars instead of gas.

Now, I am stuck with no car and have to pay almost 1100 dollars to get my car fixed. I don't have the money to pay for the damages.

How can I get the gas station to pay the damage? Contact a lawyer or what? Anyone out there that had problem like I do and what I should do? Please let me know.

Thank you all and have a great day! :)
