We are in the middle of moving and the Radiator.....it overheated for sure but didn't know what happened.

A neighbor came to look that previously had a shop and thought it was a hose.

I called around and Dr Zigs who doesn't do Radiators anymore (super nice informative guy) said no one in our area does Radiators anymore but suggested a few place who couldn't get us in til mid September or later (just for a hose). I know a lot of places are backed up from other car issues.

I called Ernies, super friendly, and they walked me thru nursing the car here (same thing my friend said: fill with water 1st, bring extra jugs of water, leave cap off).

I drove right in, and a TEAM of guys checked it all out (it was a hose, yeah).

They found a few noticeable other things too.

We did need an oil change anyway so we got that done and they replaced a broken screw $9 & and filter $20 & told us we were ready for new tires and a power steering flush and they showed me.

I knew about the tires, but I appreciate respecting that I am a curious female, showing me and talking to me like I have a brain and that they are proactive. I don't like to find out after, when it's a bigger problem.

We have storage in town, so I will be by to get some needed car issues remedied while whittling that down.

I am really sorry I haven't been coming here for the last 20 years.

I love the FULL SERVICE approach.

I knew the car wasn't feeling right and looks like I was correct and glad to have it verified.
