Car Makes - December 2007

Hi,

I have a 2003 Ford Taurus SES, the other day I was in park and my car was on but I could not put it into gear. The tow truck came and took it to Ford motors and they told me that it was my Torque Converter and that it would cost about two thousand dollars to repair. My warranty is up, but I have heard a couple of people say that there has been problems with the torque converters in Fords and I was wondering if this was true, and if this is true could I make Ford pay for the repairs, seeing as it is not an old car at all, and I take excellent care of it.

My headlights on my breeze are tilted all the way down pretty much. on the level that is in the head lamp itself is all the way to -2 (pointing low). is there a way to correct that problem because driving this car at night is a nightmare, with the high beams on the beams point like 10 feet infront of me.

Well my ignition is broke on my 1977 chevy c20 truck, so i have to use a screwdriver to push the metal rod in the steering column to start it.
I was wondering if itd be easier to install a remote starter kit, or a toggle switch and push button to start it.
And whichever you think i should get can i get a link to a cheap, decent one, and instructions on how to do it?
i was thinking just turn the metal rod to the on position and then use the toggle switch to turn on and off the battery power?
help me out please. thanks

I have a replacement lamp but I cannot figure out how to get access to replace it. On my cars there is usually easy access via the trunk. How is it done on this van?

The car has twice had this problem in 2-weeks. Both times I had lightly driven the car earlier in the day and parked it on a slight incline. It sounds like it is going to start and then sputters out. The first time this happened, it started the next day the second time it wouldn't start for 4 days. I got it towed to a mechanic they couldn't find anything wrong with it. It started right up for them.I have been driving it around and it starts fine. I just know I will get stuck somewhere and I don't want that to happen.

I own a Mercedez CLK coupe. The car is 6 month old with good tires. I don't want to get a winter beater or snow tires. How do I maximize the performance of the car in snow and avoid getting into trouble. I am a careful driver, not rash by any definition. I am particularly careful in snow.

I recently had difficult going up my driveway that was covered with about 2 inch of snow.

Im seriously interested in purchasing a used 2006 Maxima SL and after doing some research on reliability and safety for the 04-06 (only ones w/ 5sp auto) I found a recall regarding the rear subframe that could fail on the 06. It stated that dealers inspected potential cars and replaced parts "as needed". I dont want to waste my time calling nissan. Please help! The dealer that has the car will not hold the car for me. Has anyone had to deal w/ this recall?

I have a 91 Bronco 302 efi that has been having a problem with the egr valve, Ive did test on the valve, it opens and closes, holds a vacuum, and the sensor it reading right, just wondering if the vacuum tree, (on upper intake manifold) which supplies vacuum for the whole truck, is suppose to have a built in check valve. The only thing I have not check is the egr controll solenoid,, but its only about 4 years old. If the tree is suppose to have a check valve built into it, its not working.
