So tonight me and my mom decided to drive to DQ in my car and we made it about a mile from my house and the car started makeing a noise and the pedals started shakeing. The noise was like a sound a car makes when you drive over a newly paved road with wet tar except the noise was comeing from my engine. This is probably the 10th time Ive ever driven the car and about 5 of those times was in parking lot learning to drive a stick. The car just had 2,500 worth of work done. Ive only had it for about 2 months

$10/hr at a dealership is unheard of. where I work its $90/hr for customers and $61 for employees. Our master techs get paid around $25/hr so we can't charge anyone any less than that. But I work in the service dept so I pay $0 for labor
