Monday evening, my daughter was sitting in a fast food drive-thru 2 hours away when she heard hissing, saw vapors, and the check engine light started flashing. She quickly pulled into a parking place and shut it down. When she called me, she said she opened the hood and saw that the expansion...

2000 GLX AWD. The driver's window seems to have come loose from something. It still goes up and down with the window mechanism. But if the window is rolled down and i shut the door, it rattles a lot. Much more than the other windows. I found the video on repairing the mechanism on the 2002...

When this happens, can the axle be damaged? Or just any other suspension component? I'm trying to assess the possibility that some other pricey part is broken and or is above my mechanical patience. I'm about to take a weekend and replace the one side upper/lower/tie rod etc...
