Don’t laugh yet.

The last car I had was actually pretty nice. I got it as a consolation from a mechanic who blew-up my other car (that’s a long story and I’ll probably share it soon.)

Anyway – the transmission ‘failed’ one afternoon will getting on the highway. I took it to the guy who sold it to me. He scanned the door with his phone and told me to go to the manufacturer … “they won’t charge you!”

I went to the blue-oval company and they told me that they knew what the problem was. They would fix it in a day.

A day later I went back to collect the car and asked what they did to fix the car. In essence they changed the batteries! Something to do with an overly complicated transmission and a tired battery. Once the battery was changed ($317.00!) my free of charge service was complete.

Next time I’m going to try to reboot the car first.

BTW – for those of you who are interested – I’m also building a footprint on instagram. You can find me at (wait for it!) : Fatalistic_Yoga

Not very imaginative – I know.
