Wife’s car broke down — again.

We just had it back from the shop for a wheel bearing issue, and then it died on her way to work this morning. I had missed nine calls under my jacket while dropping the kids off at school. My FIL and I were able to jump the battery so I could coast home with it. The electronics died about halfway home, and I just had to leave room to roll it keeping the engine going. The ABS, TIRE SERVICE, SWERVE PROTECTION, POWER STEERING lights all came on then the dash died, and nothing much worked. It was a harrowing wait at a couple of intersections believe you me. Hopefully it’s a bum battery and not a costly wiring issue. Batteries are plentiful and relatively cheap. Who knows, car is on its last legs at this point. Just trying to get more miles out of it without too much additional cash put in. The ever present struggle. Fun morning. I need to eat, and work.
