I've had my tempo for not too long, as soon as I left her home (I'm in college now), things started going really wrong with her. Her front axles are about to come off, they aren't sure if it's the front or rear seal that is broken, and my parents want to sell her. But I have hope, does anyone have any suggestions that might keep my parents from selling and reconsidering?
I bought the car myself, but since I'm gone, my parents "would like to do what's best for me" |

| They know that. But if it's not going to run I don't care anyway, I'm just attached to it since it's my first car and I would like to know if there's anything I can do to fix it. |

You know, that's just the way parents are sometimes. Those problems sound very "routine maintenance" to me. Ask them to have a decent shop give a repair estimate. If all else is well, repalcing axles and seals might be less coslty in the long run.
Just be reasonable and logical. |
