ugh. my car.

So, I scheduled my car in for service at Monro this morning. While telling the guy at the counter what was wrong, he stopped me. "Wait a minute. You say the 'Trac off' and 'check engine' lights are on? You'd better go somewhere where they have a diagnostic tool. We can't tell you what's wrong with it."

According to my book, those two lights in combination mean there's something wrong with the exhaust system.

"Why did your rep tell me to bring it in, if now you're saying you can't work on it?"

Argh.

So now I called the dealership, who screwed up the exhaust system on my last vehicle before I brought unholy hell against them and got them to pay to fix it. My car is sitting waiting to be "diagnosed".

$70+tax just to hook it to the damn computer to tell me what's wrong.

And then, the phone call to tell me how much it will be to fix it.
