Our Lumina needs to be inspected, and we knew that there were a couple of issues we needed to address in order for it to pass inspection. So we dropped it off at the garage this morning and came home. We expected to be able to pick it tomorrow.
Well, the dreaded telephone call came in. The repairs are going to cost more than we had anticipated. We told the representative that we talked with to go ahead and do the repairs, but now we are going to have to put a few things that we wanted to do (like put in a remote starter) on hold. The car will be in the shop for an extra day or two. We have to repair it; we can’t afford a new car! That’s discouraging, but that’s life!
