I think your tranny counts. It didn't leave you stranded but you were without it while it got fixed.

I have had one break down. It was my hard driving that broke it.

[24valvenotak]

[darkelvis]

I'm not even putting the list for my 95 eclipse.

In my 2004 sentra, 1, the fuel pump went out with like 1,000 miles left on the 36K mile warranty. Now i'm 5,000 miles over the warranty and it is starting to go again.

Once

Does it count if we bought the car when it wasn't running? Hahahaha!

[dubbsy]

It's never left me stranded...
52,000 miles and I've tried to drive the wheels off of it.
Had a coil pack go out once - developed a miss. Fixed it, new plugs and wires while we were at it, and it was good to go.
Had something in the ignition go out a couple years ago again. In trying to find somewhere to pull the code, I ended up screwing up an injector as well (which nearly doubled the cost to fix it). Had it fixed as I didn't have time to do it, so I may have gotten screwed over in the process of having a shop do it. New coil pack, new injector, and a new plug (plus labor).

spend no more than $500 fixing the car.. (I put tires on it 3 times though)
