The Saga Continues

Remember this post?

I had someone from AAA come out during the school day to check the car, but aside from the battery (which failed the test) he could not find anything wrong and even told me the check engine light was not on anymore.

And then, as if things couldn't get worse, the car started making this horrible knocking noise.  I decided to stay away from Carl Black this time and called the Starling Chevrolet dealership in St. Cloud instead. It was a great decision. 

It was not until November 12 that I could get a loaner so I had to depend on my friend to get to and back from school and my sons to pick me up from Huntington. 

I finally got my car back last week Monday after one new battery, one new tire, one new battery cable, a turbo repair, and $580!!! 

Thankfully, they were able to get the turbo covered under warranty because that would have been a $1,000 fix.
