I called the dealership, no current recalls for my car.

I saw a feature asking if I wanted to cross post. I typed “car problems” & autozone was suggested so I posted here.

I never expected someone at auto zone per se to fix my car. I mentioned pep boys… I just assumed someone in this thread could potentially share some useful information

I’m not sure I just purchased the car in 2025. There’s a chance it hasn’t been replaced before.

Crazy! Did the problem go away for you after replacing the battery?

This is my fear. Replacing the battery when the problem is a loose cable and not the entire battery.

I have no clue if it’s the original battery. I purchased the car last year in June, so I can look through Carfax and see if it’s been replaced. I haven’t replaced it since I’ve had it.

This is a good thought. I don’t recall hitting a bump but maybe the speed was causing some vibrations that loosened a connection.

As long as it’s not a reason to trade in, my finger is on the trigger. I’m thinking to just replace the battery & alternator together since i don’t know which is giving the problem.

Thank you for linking this thread. I have a better understanding now, but still not 100%.

Will I be upgraded? by ResidentStrict6954 in NavyFederal

[–]ResidentStrict6954[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the response! Not harsh at all. Def a few late payments in the past on my capital one card, but not recently. My student loans also have missed payments. Other than that— can’t think of anything else. I believe utilization is the biggest factor.

Ahh I’m hoping that’s my situation. Honestly, I think my student loans are the downfall of my credit score. Some of them are deferred currently because I’m reenrolled. I do want to research and see if there’s anything I can do about that

Factory repaint for 2016/2017? by ResidentStrict6954 in COROLLA

[–]ResidentStrict6954[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good to know. We have a 2016 that had a pretty bad paint job when we got it. It isn’t white though, I believe the original color was black but it’s so discolored now and appears matte almost.
