BeenHereBefore 1,329 Posted June 16, 2021 Going to pay 3 hundred to get the drivers side window go back up and down and to fix a couple inside door handles. Now the exhaust is getting worse where the car goes 5 mile per hour when you drive it till you gun it then it runs normal speed. Great running dirt cheap car for us the last 5 years and man parting with it is like loss of a love one. Already made a commitment with the garage down the block to spend the 3 hundred on Thursday but man feeling like it's time to just let it go. I actually need it though for the next month or two till I get something else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JustinCharge 2,397 Posted June 16, 2021 There is this restaurant I found recently that makes the perfect hamburger. I mean that burger is 500x better than second place. I get sentimental eating the last bite. Its like the loss of a loved one also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sounds very reasonable to me. Seriously, if you ever feel like talking to a fellow geek who works on cars for a living, feel free to give me a call. If actually pretty decent at this.

Cool thanks Sux and will do if I need help, the price seems fair and the module is pricey and they had to order the one door handle for $25. Just took it back down today again and hope they will have it done for the days out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think people are hanging on to them cause they know they are good cars. What I see a ton of and daily are Jeep Cherokee for sale and they must be crap and everyone is trying to get rid of them.

BeenHereBefore 1,329 Posted June 17, 2021 Got it back a few hours ago and they fix the window and two of the inside door handles. Go to start it and won't turn over and the one dude tells the other to check the starter, other dude comes out and says your starter is old. I'm like the whole care is old but never had a issue in 5 years with the battery or the starter since I had it and work fine when I brought it in. Later the first dude tells me I had the door beeping for two hours while I was working on it and I'm like yep that can do it. My friend just had his car done by them a week ago and they accidentally set his on fire. They are a block away from me and walk there so why I still went with them. Seems okay now but think I'm done with them in the future. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
