Default I thought it was worse.

Well i just got the news on my car,i thought it was going to be alot more serious in the $$ department. I'm told i need 2 new tie rods 2 new ball joints(these were replaced about 14 months ago) & alignment. I told them that my starter was on it's way out and they said it was fine and that it starts. Oh really i did not know that,i'm gonna tell them to drive it in the morning around the block and shut it off for a minute and try to start it again. I'll put 100 bucks down saying it won't start. Well hopefully i can get it back tomorrow if not i'm without a ride till monday. Well atleast i'm driving somethng a little faster for today and tomorrow,my dads 03 saab 9-5 turbo.

Get the HD control arms with HD ball joints. I was replacing ball joints every 10k miles before I got mine.

Well got a call from the shop,they damaged the inner tie rod while doing the outer one. They can't do an alignment today and i might not get my car back till Monday. Now i'm pissed,i'm out 200 bucks from work this weekend now and since they damaged the inner one thats alot more expensive than the outer. If i do get it back tonight i have to find a shop to do an aligment so i can drive up to Boston this weekend.
