What is your car trouble?

I want to give back to Steemit community and provide some help on something that I know very well. Cars and how to fix them.

Please ask me about your car issue. Won't go into gear. Strange sounds. Don't know if you should take your car in to the shop. Just ask.

Send me the make, model, and year along with car symptoms.

Please remember to VOTE and ReSteem

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
When a guy says that his shaft is becoming faulty, it usually doesn't make a sound. Since this was a conversation between a father and a daughter, normally I wouldn't go near this discussion with a 10 foot pole. However, I have had some time to think long and hard about it and maybe I'm taking this out of context....

If it is truly a part of the car that we are talking about, then the "shaft" would be the driveshaft that transfers power from the engine and the axle. If it is making noise, there is something serious wrong with it that needs to be addressed. U-joints, carrier bearing, or loose bolts could leave you stranded or cause damage to the car. It is time to get it fixed.
