The Air Conditioner problem

Air conditioning issue: in the summer of 2006 my air conditioning was going out. The dealership changed the fan and it appeared to all work. The summer of 2007, (now) my car is in the shop again with ac problems that cannot be diagnosed because they can't find an error code.   Read details...

The Adaptive Equipment problem

The gas pedal got stuck under the floor mat on our 2001. 5 vw Passat - while driving - when I pushed the pedal all the way to the floor. The car started speeding but I was able to control the speed and stop the car by braking. I will be trimming the floor mat so that will not happen again.   Read details...

The Equipment problem

I was driving and I pulled into my parking lot and my engine caught on fire. I put it out with snow thank god or it would have been a lot worse. I always have coolant and oil and I checked it a lot cause of the freezing weather we have had recently had -30 for quite awhile.   Read details...
