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

The Good News Is that nothing is seriously wrong, it turns out that two of the drive belts snaped so it is only $33.38 in parts to replace. The Bad News is that the shop Charged $85.00 to put it in. In all costing $121.21. But I am very thankful that it was not something worse!
