This car is getting frustrating!

My car is at the dealer for its second tranny failure. The parts are on backorder and they don't know when they'll be in, so I stopped by the dealer to grap some more stuff out of my car, today.

I get everything I need, and as I'm walking away, I notice the right-front tire is flat and the car is sitting on the rim! I've been on those tires for 18,000 miles with not a single problem... drop it off at the dealer... and 24 hours later... well you know.

This car is starting to piss me off.

I wouldn't worry about the tire, just make sure they know about it and they should take care of it. The tranny is frustrating, some last (I'm at 63,000 and still smooth), others die quickly and as in your case twice. It could be a "bad" car, or this may be the end of your troubles (I'd prefer to think that) and you'll never have another problem. Good luck.. YMMV

Don't blame the car. It's bad luck. My saying is the following: IF I DIDN'T BAD LUCK...I'D HAVE NO LUCK! Forget it...it's just a bad day and we all get those from time to time.
