Mom's Camry has 190,000 miles. She has about one repair a year. Then there is that timing chain...
Pity. Mom has replaced her shocks twice. I drove her and my brother to Phoenix so we could visit my sister in Oregon. I needed to slow down much more than normal for the corners. I felt rather nervous with how the car handled. Then the car did not start. I got a jump and we made it to the nearest repair shop, but we barely made it into a parking spot. They said that Mom needed a new alternator and I asked them to look at the shocks.
The repairs should have been easy enough, so it was frustrating that I was not able to do them myself.
I replaced her original brakes back in December. The rotors looked perfect.
