“My mechanic, mojarro auto repair, ordered from autozone this part....when it arrived, realized it didn't at all resemble the part that his diagnostic tool stated was the problem. Jesse, found 1 at a wrecking yard. In 3 days the check engine light came on, again. I phoned detroit, michigan....gave them the VIN & part's #, the gentleman stated, that part is no longer manufactured this car still drives...w/no hesitation, city or hwy. Can I get a 1 time pass from dmv til it's next renewal?”
