Why is it that the better you treat a vehicle, the more it retaliates? The Buick got hit when it was parked, so I got some insurance money and decided to invest some extra $$$ to get other paint/rust issues fixed. The car has relatively low mileage. It's in generally decent shape otherwise, it's very nice to drive and usually has been quite reliable. Until I did something nice for it.
The car looks the best it has looked in a decade. Initially it developed an issue with the directional/DRL lamp which couldn't just be a bulb. It turned out to be a faulty socket. Now the antilock system is acting up, it has an intermittent rumble/vibration at idle when stopped in gear. It's particularly noticeable if you tweak the steering wheel, suggesting a belt issue. WHY?! It was fine until we fixed it up.
I just can't win.
