Did Mommy Get a Bad Car?

Ok, many of you know we traded in my volvo for a Honda Odyssey. In the past, we have had bad luck with all of our cars needing lots of repairs. I was hoping that with a Honda that wouldn't happen but not a chance. Honda recalled my car due to the brake system so we took that in. The following week I noticed my air conditioning not blowing cool air. Eventually, the car over heated and it had to be towed to the dealership. I had to call Michelle, to take my kids to her house while I waited for the tow truck to arrive. I felt bad for Michele because now she has 6 kids at her house and I didn't know when I was going to pick them up. To make a long story short, I had several cracks in the radiator and they replaced the whole thing. They told me that these last for ever and you don't see this in cars that have 30,000 miles on it. We picked up the car last night and well my car over heated again. I couldn't believe it. I thought my issues were fixed but not a chance. This time I asked for a rental car because this problem should have been fixed the first time. They agreed with me. They director over the mechanics called me and told me that my air compressor fan was dead, again you never see this and so he had to order the part. Therefore, my car has to stay overnight. Its just a pain to go through this and I thought buying a honda would last a lifetime.
