The Dreaded Squeak

So last Friday I ended up takin Ivy into the dealership in JC where I bought her. My 60 day used car limited warranty is up at the end of this month, so I figured I'd best get a few concerns addressed while I can still do so for free.

First was the brakes squeeling every time I applied them. I wasn't sure if it was really a problem or not, but I wanted to make sure. Second was the air conditioning. It worked great when it was cold out, but I don't really NEED the air conditioning when it's friggin cold out.

So... since Pop doesn't work on Thursdays and Fridays, he followed me down there Friday morning (amidst a spectacular storm... yay cuz we needed the rain, but good gawd I hate driving in storms) and then he took me back down at the end of the day to pick her up. Mom ended up coming with for that last trip, cuz I had a blazing migraine and on drugs and wasn't too steady. So she drove me home. We had to work in a visit to the chiropractor in the middle of all that, too.

Amway, the dealership garage ended up fixing my air condition and replacing my brake pads. They told me that the brakes were squeaking because the pads had worn down to the glued part, which tends to squeak. It was very nice of them to replace the pads, though it wasn't that big of an urgency.

However, I'm beginning to wonder if the glue was really the culprit, cuz they're squeaking again. But at least I know I have brand new brake pads, and that the squeak shouldn't be that big of a deal. :)
