Car Shopping

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of NMEDA for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

I love my car, but some days I feel like she doesn't love me back.  If you remember, over the summer I had a lot of issues with my car running really hot.  The culprit ended up being my thermostat, and the mechanic finally removed it, and that seemed to fix the problem.  Now that the weather is getting cooler, I needed to have it put back on so that I can run my heat.  Thankfully, the thermostat itself was only about $8 (including the gasket) and my ex was able to get it on my car without much trouble.  The only issue now is that my heat doesn't work.  He says I need a heater coil (I think) which is kind of expensive, so I may spend the winter driving around under a blanket.

I don;t want to get a new car, because I really do love my car.  It suit me, I think.  It's hard to find a car that fits all your needs, especially if you are disabled.  Of course, you can have a car customized to your specific needs, especially if you visit a NMEDA dealer.  NMEDA is the only association that promotes safe driving and equipment for disabled people. They are non-profit and their members are required to adhere to the safety standards of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. They also have QAP dealers. The Quality Assurance Program (QAP) is the only nationally recognized accreditation program for the Adaptive Mobility Equipment Industry. It is based on the principle that in order to satisfy customers consistently, companies must have a systematic and documented approach to quality.

If you find yourself in need of a handicapped vehicle, check their website to find the NMEDA dealer nearest you.
