My precious daughter Kathy-Lee is
having car troubles sometimes it starts sometimes it doesn't she has
had a couple of times that she has had to leave the car parked on the
side of the road because it wouldn't start. The first time was last
Thursday morning she had came here and picked me and Leo up to take
Leo to day care after I had dropped him off when she went to start
the car to drive me home it wouldn't start and we had to ring my mum
and ask if she could come and pick Kathy and Sydney up and she
couldn't she arranged for my sister Sandra to do it instead but both
me and Kathy got fed up with waiting and started walking. Sandra did
pick Kathy up and Jessica ended up coming and getting me but I did
walk part of the way home. Later that afternoon when I picked Leo up
from day care on the spur of the moment I tried Kathy's car and it
started so I drove it back to her place and had her take me back to
my car.
We did try to jump start the car but that didn't work so we have no idea what the problem is and on Wednesday it goes to the mechanics to see what the problem is.
She didn't drive it again till Saturday
when she drove it to work and back again both times it started no
problem, then this morning she drove it work again and back again,
however after she was home a bit she got home Natasha rang her and
said that she had forgotten to pick Blain up from school and she
needed Kathy to go get him this was at 3.30pm Blain got out of school
at 3pm. So Kathy goes to jump in the car and it will not start it
took a bit but she got it going and got to the school got Blain and
yes you guessed it the car would not start to drive home and it was
starting to rain and she was in a state she had left her phone at
home anyway she found some change and rang my house and Jessica
jumped in her car and drove to get them and take them home.`
So a couple of hours later I went and
tried her car and it started so I then drove it home again for her so
now the car is back at her place which makes her feel better, no one
likes the idea of having their car parked on the side of the road for
x amount of time.
oh it's a big problem when the car won't start.
ReplyDeleteHope it's repaired soon, even though it starts sometimes. I don't know a thing about what's wrong with cars :)
I know little to nothing about the inner workings of cars. I do hope it gets fixed soon-
ReplyDeleteWe are so dependent on our transportation aren't we? That's why I had to buy a vehicle. I am 4 miles to the nearest store and I surely cannot walk in my condition. Hope her car gets fixed up soon and it's nothing too drastic.
ReplyDeletesounds exactly like what my daughters car is doing. Piece of crap
ReplyDeleteProbably could've mitigated a few of the headaches if you had stopped driving it the first time it stopped running, but you had managed to get it home [off the side of the road.] No fun being stranded, especially when you know there is something wrong with the car to begin with.
ReplyDeleteHope it is something easy like the alternator or voltage regulator and gets fixed soon.
my mom's van keep having trouble starting to they tell her it's a delay reaction to the automatic doors but but that's BS as it will work find for a week then not start for a day or two. cars are just a headache
ReplyDeleteWhiteangel........We can only hope that it doesn't cost to much to get repaired.
ReplyDeleteShelly.......Me too I know nothing which is why it's going to the mechanics tomortow
Barb......Yes we are Kathy doesn't mind walking in fine weather but she can't walk to work that would take a couple of hours...........lol
Craziness abounds.....Sometimes our cars feel like more bother then they are worth but then we have to walk or catch a bus for a while and think differently
Skippy......She only went out because her sister was crying because she had forgotten to pick Blain up from school, it will not be driven again until it has been fixed hopefully
Becca.......Cars I have no idea about the workings of them I get in turn the key and go.......lol Someone told Kathy it maybe the starter motor.
