I was driving along the highway when my car suddenly went berserk. It started making a lot of noise that I had to stop to check if it weren’t about to explode. I immediately called my friend for help. He was able to contact the emergency team or something of the highway police which responded very quickly. It was a difficult spot to be in since, did I not mention I was stuck in a highway?! I learned my lesson that day. I immediately had my car fixed and I couldn’t care less what new parts were needed as long as my car would become useful again. I had my friend help me through Pep Boys since my car was in major trouble. Within 2 weeks I got my car back. When I started driving it around again, after that Pepboys session, I couldn’t help but be paranoiac in terms of the performance of my can, errr, car. Even the slightest change in sound (caused by passing by a hump or some debris on the street,, or I dunno) made me very much attentive since who knows, another car disaster might be at the offing. Last week, I made a long drive (I had to since it was part of my work) and even asked my friend to come with me just to be sure I have added help should my car break down again. What a relief when we reached our destination with all our limbs in their proper place. Actually, my friend though I was just too over dramatic about the whole incident. Right now, my car does not worry me anymore, it functions properly and I think that is the most important thing. One cannot predict when another car trouble will occur. But I am prepared should my car get crazy again. I just have to be calm and take it like a big girl. Help is always available anyway.
