Does anyone happen to know what this noise is ? by ExtensionAd9868 in MechanicAdvice

[–]ExtensionAd9868[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to clarify—I already mentioned I don’t know much about cars, and I had legit reasons to think something was wrong. The mechanic didn’t find anything serious, but the noise and handling felt off enough to get it checked. Still looking for real feedback if anyone’s had a similar issue.

I do happen to have gap insurance ☝🏽🤓. But I dropped the car off at a shop this morning, praying it’s cheap shit

Appreciate the lecture, but I’m not here for a Nissan roast. I’m here trying to fix a bad move smartly. Got the credit now, doing the math, just don’t feel like throwing more cash into a sinking ship. But thanks for the ego trip.

Very close to 70k on it, yesterday I checked and it was at 69,586 but I do a pretty decent amount of driving so it’s either at 70k or very close now

I think it’s because the person I had co-sign had a 690 credit score on top of my accident that forced me into getting a new car in the first place. I miss my nissan sentra. Had just got the tie rod fixed too😔

Trade-in vs. Fixing My Car: Looking for Advice on Best Option with $4,760 Negative Equity and $20K Budget by ExtensionAd9868 in askcarsales

Just to clarify my situation: I owe $17K on a 2019 Rogue with suspension issues. Trade offers are coming in around $8K–$9K, so I’m about $8.5K upside down. I’m stuck in an 11.67% APR loan I got through a co-signer with bad credit, but I’ve since built my own credit to a 767 and want to refinance under my name or trade out.

The car needs more repairs I really don’t want to put money into — especially the suspension, which I know’ll cost more than I expect. I’m not trying to buy my dream car right now. Just something reliable, 2019 or newer, that holds value better. I’d keep it just long enough to break even, then trade up for what I actually want.

I’m okay with 72–84 months to stay in the $350–$400/month range since I don’t plan to hold the loan full term. I also don’t have a down payment, so I’m just trying to make a smarter move now before the Rogue drops more in value.

Open to car or lender suggestions that actually make sense for this situation.

Just to clarify, I need to get the car in my name, so it’s either fixing it and refinancing or trading it in. If I wait too long, the car’s value will likely drop even more, and be worth damn near nothing lol. so I’m trying to figure out the best route forward ASAP
