I haven't heard of anyone "adjusting brakes" since the bygone days of drum brakes.

About a year later, the police found the perpetrators who probably got a slap on the wrists.
Now, wife and I have Lifelock accounts, not entirely foolproof, but certainly a comfort to have.
Sandy, sorry you also had to go through this, but fortunately, as with me, it could have been worse.

I'm also using Lifelock.
We are now password covered everywhere, a good thing and all 3 credit bureaus have been alerted and a freeze has been put in place. Not much more we can do for now I suspect...J
just want things settled already!
On the Accent's brakes, they cleaned them and adjusted the parking brake and everything is fine with the pads, calipers and all moving parts. First major maintenance done since Thanksgiving 2008 when new so think we're o k...it has turned out to be a great economy car! It's on a road trip now and just heard that it drove like a champ today to upstate Florida...she needs this vehicle to last another 6 or so years but with just over 20k on the clock, should be doable.

cruised the Elantra aisle, thinking about this in the summer. they had a lot of them. 16s out already too. not worried about getting a cheap lease come the summer if I want it.
real nice GT 6 speed stick all loaded up in the showroom. that could be a fun car, but not what we are looking for (should have convinced the princess to stick with the stick!).
had an annoying time. took an extra hour, because there was a call for a navi update. which somehow took an hour+ to load, so I got out in the middle of rush hour instead of just in front.
on the plus side, because I was polite and patient (no blow ups!) the service writer appreciated it, and told me that the next one (which I was supposed to pay for) would be on them too, so I have a free oil change and rotation coming. So yeah, it was worth hanging out the extra time looking at cars!

In fact, now that I think about it, it was probably priced very similarly to my loaded Mazda. Which is to say, that's a great value! Dang, maybe I should've given that a bit more thought!

Sandy, hope you get everything straightened out.

For those who aren't over in the buying and selling thread my nice Mazda 6 wagon gave up the ghost. Four catalytic converters. Am hunting its replacement. Have pretty well settled on this - http://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-sale/vehicledetails.xhtml?featureCodes=1132&zip=08050&endYear=2016&showcaseOwnerId=7338345&startYear=2010&makeCode1=MAZDA&listingType=certified&listingTypes=certified&maxMileage=30000&searchRadius=75&maxPrice=20000&showcaseListingId=381909543&mmt=[MAZDA[][]]&listingId=397014880&Log=0
2017 Cadillac ATS Performance Premium 3.6
Just curious: what would a new one like that go for?

2014 Malibu 2LT, 2015 Cruze 2LT,
And you know, I hit the flag button by mistake trying to copy that sentence.
Looks like a great purchase! Just watch out for those tan leather interiors -- the ones on my Honda absorb the denim color from my jeans. For some reason grey doesn't do that. I bet you will want a backup cam for sure.

How do you even sell a truck like that? Auction maybe with full disclosure?

I was coming down a local 4 lane, at a point where there are a couple of side roads, and it is windy. People occasionally take the risk that they can shoot across all 4 lanes. well, the Jeep decided to try just as I was approaching. he made it about 3 lanes before realizing it was a bad mistake. thankfully he nailed the brakes and stopped about 1/2 way into my lane. I hit the brakes and (somehow) was able to swerve around him (into the side road he was heading for) and back into my lane before running into the telephone pole at the corner.
I think my wife pee'd her pants on that one (though it would have it on my side). can't believe I got around him without running off the road, but I will take it. Must have missed him by inches, because I saw a ton of black jeep out my side window!
Sonata did fine in the emergency maneuver. Some tire squeal, but no real drama. If the ESC had to kick in, it was not noticeable. just went where i pointed and away we went.
did get my heart pumping a bit!

Regardless, not a 35 mpg car but isn't supposed to be with a 274 HP turbo and an est 31 hwy. At a consistent 75-80 on the highway, I'm very pleased with the result.

I suppose, based on that figuring, this truck is worth $1000 then. Shame to junk it. I'd buy it but I don't like regular cab trucks. It's nice to have a back area to stash things or carry another passenger in a pinch.
Local Mazda dealer hasn't a clue about how far his competition can be. This is about an hour and a half away, but very close to my brother so I can always turn a service trip to a visit.
Local guy was trying to sell a CX5 but charging $2K over what I could have gotten it for. Kept saying how they had free oil changes and loaner cars for cars bought there. $2K will buy a lot of oil changes and either I can go locally and get a ride from a neighbor (heck, one day the mechanic lent me his Suburban for a day. That was an adventure!) ot in great necessity rent a car for a day. Again, you can do a lot with $2K.
Corvette - I LOVE the idea of a Mazdaspeed 5. Rb - ready for a project?.....

I don't know - in the week since I expressed interest in the vehicle, it's been considered "sold" twice now, with both buyers backing out. If that's not a red flag, I don't know what is.
They also keep jacking around with the listed price - it was as low as $11,999 at one time, $12,999 when I found it, and now after at least two buyers backing out on it, it's apparently worth $14,999.
Here's the listing:
'04 ZHP
Steering wheel needs to be re-wrapped, apparently there's a small tear in the driver's seat (according to the salesperson), and seems to me, from one of the front end pictures, the front bumper has a larger than normal gap between it and the grill/fender. No accident per Carfax, but of course that means very little.
Still, if the condition was good (other than the steering wheel, which is easily addressed), and there are no mechanical issues, it may be tempting for a 57k mile example.
