My Chevy Aveo was defective and after a lawsuit, turned out to be a lemon. It had multiple suspension and steering issues. It’s my first new car and I’m sad to see it go, but it’s for the better.

My best friend said that the maufacturer is going to destroy the car, as they can’t sell it. But I’ve heard of lemons being bought as used cars.

I’d be sad to know that my car will no longer exist, but it brought up a good point; what happens to the cars labeled as lemons?

When the different directions are separated except at the intersection and there’s no stop sign, what are you supposed to do if both cars wait in the middle to turn left…and end up blocking each other’s view ?! How should the cars place themselves? The other car always goes to his side of the middle so he blocks my view to oncoming cars, so I don’t even know when it’s safe to turn.

Hi all!

I think my car has a bad battery. I was successful in jump starting my car with another car. I could get it started and running for a few minutes with jump start cables. I then turned both cars off, disconnected the jump start cable. My car couldn’t start then without the cable.

Can I disconnect my jump start cable when the two cars are still running? That way I can drive the car to an auto shop and have the battery replaced.

Thanks.
Felix.

Angela C asked:


I am looking to buy an older model car and I am wondering which older cars (mid 80’s – 90’s models), do mechanics prefer to work on? My mechanic told us a while back that he hated working on Ford Contours, which made me wonder if some cars are easier to do work to than others.

How do people without cars get their new babies home?

SincerelyYours asked:


It might seem like a silly question, but i’ve been pondering it. I live in a big city, so a lot of people don’t have cars. It seems silly to have them go by a car seat they’re never going use to have someone drive them home from the hospital, so how do they get the baby home?
Does the hospital let people take a newborn on public transportation? Walk?
