THe place that put on my tires said I needed -- did I mention this already?-- new seals and a c-clip on the differential, the housing is leaking more than ever. and my rear brakes need to be replaced. Hubs are getting thin, they said, shoes can't grab at them. Even though this car had a full safety inspection a couple months ago.
I thought maybe they wanted me to spend more money, but I'm seeing what they mean. My rear brakes do make a scuffing noise when I turned the rear wheels.
Some fellow I talked to had a look at my car, and said, whatever is wrong with that beast, anything is possible. He made an old worn out crack about FORD meaning Found On Road Dead, gee, as though I'd never heard that before. Well, so what, that can happen to any car. I've seen Ferraris and Rolls Royces broken down on the side of the road, too.
