My father now is doing some maintenance work on the car which we are using
I gave my father more than a week ago for buying some spare parts of our car's engine like the timing belt, the oil seal, and the camshaft/crankshaft seal of some sort whereas the latter I don't know what he is talking about because as I searched the online shop that are selling it, they sell it in two parts with different prices, one is is for camshaft seal while the other one is a crankshaft seal with a more cost than the previous while my father says that if you buy the crankshaft/camshaft seal, you will get two parts.
So I didn't order that part and he just told my sister's husband to buy it for him and he will pay him back. My father also told me to use his Smartphone to but that item because "maybe" it will be different if we do that route. I say "what father it is just the same?" Now what he is doing is to take out that part from the engine and go to the car shop and present toto them so he can get the exact part that we need on order to maintain the car's basic use although I know that it has other problems too like being a hog on the fuel because it need calibration for the fuel system.
The car's suspension system also needs to be replaced because we are already hearing sounds at the rear of the car while the right front suspension cannot handle a bump because it had gone soft and basically needs replacing. So running this car normally on the hi-way especially at high speeds will make it fish tail for sure which is why maybe my sister's husband just gave it to use and didn't sell it because it has lots of problems that a future buyer will have to deal with and say "pass" to it.
Also, this car is useless when it comes to using a flooded road because it is a Sedan and it is low and my father just doesn't want to drive it when it rains hard and it makes me feel not confident when we use it if the weather is wet and rainy particularly if the road is submerged. The windows get foggy because it has no A?C to minimize the humidity inside the car when it is raining and I actually do not want to fix the A/C because it is either that the A/C will get broken again or we will not use it even if we need it because my father always says that it burdens the engine an eats extra fuel which irritates me a lot when he says it.
Buying a new car is no joke and I also do not want to buy a second-hand car for the reason that it has hidden issues that can give me a headache afterwards. When my brother and Aunt had a joint venture on operating a taxi with my father driving it, the car that they bought didn't started on the first day of operating it considering that my father had test-driven it and I overheard him telling the former owner, "it pulls so strong". But upon opening the engine and seeing the cylinder lining, it already has deep scratches. The engine is bad enough that it totally needs replacement, so my brother has to shell-out extra money to buy a second-hand engine so that the taxi can be used. After a few short years, my father decided all by himself to sell the right of the taxi to operate without consulting my brother and my Aunt, it is a very dumb decision proving that my father really has a weird decisions when to comes to businesses and long term perspectives.
Thankfully when we need an emergency transport we can have it like for example our barrio has an ambulance that we can schedule to use for my need to go to the dialysis clinic and it is such a great thing for my survival because it is truly hard to use public transportation because of my physical state as I am still trying to improve my bones which I hope to improve so that I can be mobile again and take back my independence if that is possible. For one thing I needed a better car that can transport me from point A to point B regardless of the weather or road condition and that is still a far-away dream to achieve and will happen only if the prices of cryptos improves in the next months or even years and it is a long, long wait that I pray to come and happen as fast as possible.

No wealthy person would buy a new car since from the moment you buy it, the value drops. Besides, it's also possible that new cars have serious issues and there are way more than you might think
A car always brings costs along and the more you know about it yourself, the better it is, so no one can fool you and lie what all the things are that should be fixed.
I learned that when a car starts to have issues it's better to get rid of it, Your brother did a wise thing but you shouldn't have bought it and I find it kind of shameful that your brother sold it to you since he knows how your finances are and a good car is important.
I hope the car hangs in so you have time to save and your father can solve all issues. It's a good thing he can do that. If it comes to his decision to sell it also sounds to me he doesn't respect those he works with very much.
A good day to you.
I send you love and may your problem s be solved.
If only this car has at least two feet of ground clearance I would never think of buying a new car because my aim is to have a working vehicle even if there are floods and many streets here in my town alone gets submerged when a heavy downfall of rain happens and that is my concern because I have to go to my treatment clinic religiously otherwise it will not be good.
New cars today have many moving parts and are computerized, so if it ever brakes it will have to go to the proper shops so that faults, errors, and damages can be put in order or repaired.
Which is why it is in not on my list to do because we still have at least a working car but with limitations like not good for wading through flooded streets when it gets unpassable for such low-lying cars.
Thank you for your love and care Miss @wakeupkitty.pal @wakeupkitty 😀🌹🌹🌹
There aren't many cars up to floods.. we have the muddy road here and if that's the case (and we are stuck) the car stays behind or we are. Once we been home for 6 weeks which isn't an option for you.
Like you say all the new cars are problematic (we had them - one part doesn't function and it can be caused by 18 different parts and of course the workshop will replace one part after the next till the problem is solved and it's always very expensive. It's made to replace or to throw away, not for being fixed.
Two feet is a lot and you cannot get a car that higher with different tires.
I hope your father can fix it and some solution will be on your way.
I keep my finger crossed, a warm embrace to you, dear friend.
