I was driving the car and expressway. The car was making a sound. The car did not have an engine light on it. Also, the car just switched gears. I pulled over and II was driving the car and expressway. The car was making a sound. The car did not have a engine light on it. Also, the car just switched gears. I pulled over and I tried to park the car, but it wouldnât allow me to park the car. Which it is left in drive with the emergency brake still in place .and if you let the break down the car will roll . . I got it looked at and now they are saying itâs the transmission, but it never had a light on to identify what was wrong with the car. There was no codes on the car.
schedule a service appointment at AutoNation Toyota Hayward for October 14, 2026, at 8:40 AM. I arrived before 8:37. At that time, I was told it would only take three hours to complete. The car hadn't moved at 11:37. At that time I asked when it could be completed. I was told there's no estimated completion time. So Iâve decided to leave. Why was my appointment set for 8:40 if nobody was free to deal with this until 11:37 ?
I was driving home from church late Sunday night. A really rough storm hit and it knocked down a huge tree in the road covering the entire road. I did not see the tree until I got up on it and I went straight through it. I was running around 40 mph and total front end impact took the whole bumper off but my airbags did not deploy.
CV axle making clicking noise when turning with all CV axle boots in good condition.
Each travel driver seat belt become tight I try pull down for loose and I have notice the driver seat become level low.
