Anyway, I kept hearing a beep and looked at the dash board and I saw that someone's seat belt wasn't attached. Well, since he was in a car seat, and I was using the seat belt, I checked and mine was attached so I decided to ask. Sweetest Grandson On Earth I said, did you mess with your seat belt. Of course SG said no. I pulled into the nearest look off the mountain place and checked his car seat and there was the problem, he had, in fact, managed to disconnect his seat belt that connected his car seat to the car. He was very angry that I had found out and a few miles down the road announced he didn't like our car, and I asked why, and he said, it's a tattle tale. Kids don't like tattle tales. I couldn't help but crack up. That's what you have, a tattle tale car.zelda1https://www.blogger.com/profile/04212809913449846878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6570740.post-1146655668220390392006-05-03T04:27:00.000-07:002006-05-03T04:27:00.000-07:00My airbag light has been flashing for about two ye...My airbag light has been flashing for about two years. It's comforting. Sometimes it stops and I wonder, "where are you little light?"

If the light reappears within, say 50 miles, then have it professionally checked out. 9 times out of 10 it won't and you just saved $60.tinyhandshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08241060237876465421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6570740.post-1146628167595087602006-05-02T20:49:00.000-07:002006-05-02T20:49:00.000-07:00Factory recalls are also requests to give money to...Factory recalls are also requests to give money to the mechanics. I took my Camry in once in response to a "steering nut" recall. They fixed that in 20 minutes at no charge, then said, "Oh, by the way, you need a new engine." They made the situation sound so dire that I ordered a new one. Thank God, my son-in-law, enraged at the way they rip off "old people" (his unfortunate choice of words) canceled the order. I drove that car five more years before trading it in. (It was starting to smoke a little bit by then.)Linda@VShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04499621332375290781noreply@blogger.com
