not sure if this belongs here or not.....BUT

as some of you may know, i have a hundai elantra GLS that my grampa is driving until he leaves back to russia(soon).

well, 3 weeks ago, he went to vist russia and left the car outside. right befre he left, me n him swaped all of the light bulbs and had the car serviced. everything was great. now, he comes back and drives the car. whistling at speeds over 60mph, most of the light bulbs are dead, and all the belts need replacing......WTF!?!? so the car is in the shop with a $900 bill.

GOOD NEWS, i got a thing in the mail today from the dealership saying i get a free gift since i the car has been in the family since new-2002. the free gift is touch up paint!! so im kinda excited to finally get rid of all the little chips and stuff.

not a problem, just look ubder seats and in hidden spots of the trunk for any shredded stuff that they use for "bedding"
