i noticed today that my 1994 ford taurus has a funny smell comming from the back driver side wheel (i think). it kind of smells like somethin is burning and i was wondering what the smell is/what is wrong with it, and if anyone knew how much it would cost to fix? thank you.

I drove {my 2003 4WD Ranger} 200 miles on a trip, arrived home, and the next day, my front wheel bearing started making a TERRIBLE racket, and had to be replaced. There was no sign of any problem on my trip. Isn't there usually more warning that a wheel bearing is starting to go? Is there any reason why one would go out at 89,000 miles? What about the other bearings....are they likely to go out soon, too? Is there anything else to look out for?

I had a mechanic look at my brakes about a month ago and he said they were still in pretty good shape. He said they were squeaking just because they arent the highest quality parts. The squeaking seems to get better, another person said I have about 75% left which I'm assuming is for the rotors? Is it normal for the brakes to keep making noise or should i just change the pads.

Our 1994 Jeep was totally destroyed by fire. The reason was because of a flat tire, we put the original,never used, compact tire on it and aprox. 9 miles down the road, our Jeep caught on fire. The Jeep was in mint condition with only 60,000 miles on it,Has anyone ever filed a claim with their insurance company over this kind of thing? we would like to hear from you.Please email me at rsh_sndy@yahoo.com. We are going to court with Chrysler Corperation. Thanks

I have a rodeo and i think something is wrong with the brakes. on dry or wet pavment i can slam on the brakes and it will come to a wuiet stop without and skidding or loss of traction. but on the snow when i hit the brake there is the most annoying buzzing sound, and the brake peddal vibrates. is this normal? is the abs at work or is it malfunctioning?

P.S brakes are new and I have good condition A/T tires.

The fluid is clear and has no smell to it, it is coming from the front right side of the car and it is not coming from anywhere around the tire, and my air condition wasn't on, the fluid is a little greasy but has no smell, and it was a big puddle, I wanted to see if it was still leaking later on that night so I moved my car to a different part of the driveway and a little came out but not nearly as much as the first leak I noticed.
Can anyone tell me what it could be? And is it safe to drive?

I replaced shoes on my car. They needed drums too. The drums are old and rusted and don't want to come off. It was sugessted that I back off adjusting screw through one of the holes in the backing plate. What does it look like? Can I use a screw driver to do this? Can a TV mechanic like myself get it done? Its frustrating that the drums don't budge at all. A mechanic said that they were adjusted too tight. Please help and thank you in advance.
