I have a 2002 Hyundai Accent. I had the tires balanced and rotated yesterday because the car was shaking a lot and seemed very wobbly at certain speeds. I figured this would take care of the problem. It took car of most of the problems but now at slow speeds the car kind of wobbles side to side a bit (mostly when slowing down). Any idea what else it could be. I hope it's nothing serious because I don't have the money to take care of this right now.

Here's my dilemma, my brakes just started squealing last week on Tuesday (only the front driver side brake is squealing). I got several quotes from shops and all range from $700-$800 bucks (I need a full brake job). Money I don't have because I have not been able to find employment up until yesterday (June 7). I start working on the 12th, and this job requires driving and is out a distance from my home (3 miles). I have been taking it easy by driving only when I have to and on surface streets and not speeding. What I want to know is with light driving will my brake hold out until I get that almighty first pay check?

Also, my owners manual says the noise is a safety feature to let me know to replace the pads soon, but what's that time frame?

Last week, I spilled a chocolate milkshake in the cupholders of my Jeep. I cleaned it out as best I could, but now there's still goopy chocolate gunk in the crevices at the bottom. I've tried everything I could think of to clean it out, but nothing's working. Now my car smells like rotten chocolate milk. Does anybody have any ideas? I have to get that cleaned up before the smell starts making me sick.

from past two days, i am constantly being annoyed by the ticking sound of the indicators which start as soon i turn on the ignition of my 92 accord. last night i found that the left turn indicator keeps on blinking abruptly all the time, but not with same brightness and it doesnt show in the dashboard either. the ticking is faster than the normal ticking, i wonder whats the problem with the signals. please help me with this.

Hi anyone know what it could be? My car started shaking as if it was going to shut off, then the engine light came on, the owner manual says it may be the catalitic converter however, I think it just may need some oil...someone help!!

Ok so I own 2 cars, 1996 Dodge Avenger and a 1987 Cadillac Brougham and neither run. The avenger will turn over and sound very close to starting so im guessing fuel pump.
caddy will start if there is either a new or charged battery but will either die in 3 days or 1 hour. so im guessing its either a short or something unknown to me is draining the battery the alternator is new and works fine... they both have gas they have both ran before.
few questions
1. Are these problems correct, if not what are the problems
2. what would be the prices to fix or a cheap way to fix
3.should i keep one and get rid of one and fix another if so which
4. any other important info or advice I NEED TO DRIVE!

Alright, well I got great answers on my last question, so I thought I'd ask for assitance here as well...probably will continue to do so...I need a way to secure the spare tire on my Jeep, the dealer said they make "locking" lug nuts...where might I purchase one?
