I was on my way to Georgia for a long weekend, halfway up a mountain my car went from 60 to 15. I limped up to the top (dodging semis) had to wait 2 hours for a tow
truck to come and haul me in. (did I mention I am female, was alone and it was the middle of the night) I had to replace the catalytic converter ($632.00)

Not only did I have the catalytic converter replaced about a year ago but I also had to replace a head gasket. Now it looks as if I am going to need the catalytic converter
replaced again. On top of this, the car uses an excessive amount of oil, at least 1 quart per week.
