Ten years ago, we bought a new I35 Infiniti. It's been a great car. I honestly don't remember it needing anything but tires and a battery as well as regular oil changes and lubes. I'm probably wrong, but I definitely can't remember the last time it needed a major repair. So, when the "Check Engine Soon" light came on yesterday, I immediately braced myself for a four-figure bill. I just felt we were due.
The mechanic called this afternoon with a quote of less than $800 and I nearly jumped for joy. Better yet, the only other concerns were the front tires and brakes. The tires should be replaced within six months; the brakes can wait up to nine months.
We hope to drive the Infiniti for several more years. After all, on average, we only log 6,000 miles a year. We're keeping our fingers crossed the I35 continues to serve us well.
