i would just go somewhere and pay the 20 bucks to get it changed. if there is something noticeably wrong with your car, they might spot it, too. it's happened to me before. i'm glad you are ok.....were you part of the 5 car pile-up? or did i read that wrong?

I have a place I normally go to, but my new schedule pretty much sucks up my whole day (I get out at 8:15pm). I was trying to get a temporary fix until I can take it in. I, personally, think this is just bad karma for telling people who have vehicle problems "NO!" all day. As far as the pile up, no one actually collided, it was just a VERY close call for me and a bunch of other drivers. Not good for the brakes, folks.

I know, dude. I thought about that, I just get scared that they won't be able to fix it in time for me to get to work. I'm 'onna call 'em, though. Maybe my boyfriend can squeeze me in early!
