already a very expensive week - yikes!

Last night we booked a labor day trip to CO with the in-laws.

Then today got the diagnosis for my car that we brought in for a weird noise - 2 wheel bearings need replaced - and my civic is only 5 years old and has under 50K miles!! I had always spoken so highly of the reliability of my car...now, not as satisfied! With the diagnosis and the 2 replacements it will be almost $900.

The vacation I am ok with, the car...not how I want to spend our money!!

    Yeah for the trip but I'm sorry about the car. My 2 cars before mine now were civics and were always so reliable, I'm sorry. Could it be covered under warranty?

    not covered - I didn't purchase the extended warranty, and if I had it would have expired last month I believe. So I probably would have been kicking myself :-)

    At least we've been in savings mode for awhile now, so it's not going to kill us. A year or 2 ago this would have been far worse!!

  • I spent $60.00 on ice...yes ICE yesterday if that makes you feel any better.  I wish you guys lived closer.  I'm sure my DH could fix that for less than 900.00  With him being a mechanic it amazes me when he tells me the prices that dealers and some other mechanics charge people.  The mark up is ridiculous! 
  • yay for vaca, boo for car!

  • uhg that stinks about the car... I have a Honda Accord (that's 10yrs old!) and I've had to replace those along with lots of other stuff! Seems like 5yrs is when stuff starts to need replacing... I think it's that way with most cars, but I still feel that Honda's are VERY reliable cars :)
