The car

Well, the family and I went out to supper last night then went driving around town for a little bit. While driving around, we heard a thump and then something sounded like it banging around underneath. Pulled over and was checking behind the front tires and noticed something large and plastic hanging down from one of the struts. Took the car to a mechanic this morning after calling the boss and let her know what happened. Turned out the sway bar (actually a part connecting to it), had broken off. Luckily, it only cost $70 for parts and labor to fix. Had a check engine light also but that code got cleared after I replaced the gas cap. The code was for an emission leak. If the light comes back on, I'll have them check it again, but they said it should be okay for now. So, the car is fixed, and I will be going back to work in the morning. I think I got lucky, found a mechanic that won't charge you an arm and a leg to fix your car. Well, until next time, peace love and God bless.
