Took my car to our mechanic due to check engine light which was diagnosed as a problem with the oxygen sensor($300. to fix one but better to fix both $500). Later today was advised a loose ball joint needed repair and latest call back advised of a cracked spindle. We are at a loss as to the latest problem,senior citizens,city and suburban driving only.Would you recommend second opinion. Thx.
