So, yes, I went out to run a few errands earlier, and my car's steering was completely fucked up. To the point where I had trouble getting it back into the parking space after backing out of it ( Read more... )

On the positive side, my car passed its emissions test, so I don't have to worry about that until 2018. Don't ask how I made the broken "Low Oil" light that's been on for six months straight turn off so that I could do said test. Seriously, don't ask.
