Is it a lemon?!
Last night Josh and I went out to get a pizza with my car and it took 3 times to start.. weird but we figured it was pretty cold.. maybe that was it. This morning I drove to work and it was fine. I leave work on lunch to go home and eat and visit doggies and the car stalls in the middle of auto center drive and magic mountain pkwy. in the intersection of course.. i start it and it starts again but only goes 9mph and the check engine light and EML light go on.. wonderful 9mph is EXTREMELY slow when you’re in an intersection.. you’d be surprised..
i got it into a parking lot near the mall and called roadside assistance who said they’d be there in 45 mins. After 45 mins I called them back and they said oh, i mean 6 hours. Yes, they said SIX HOURS. wtf. So i escalated the call to supervisor and supervisor again and they paid an “out of area” tow company to get my car at in 90 more minutes. so i walked back to work and then had the tow company call me when they were nearby. And so my mini is back at the dealer for a diagnosis tomorrow.
I hope i get it back tomorrow night. I need it for my sisters’ visit!!
