On my 96 Sebring vert that never gets beat on no less!

229 miles from home the AC compressor decided to lock up (started growling Monday afternoon), toasted the serpentine & left me w/o a charging system.

Good thing the Mitsu 2.5 has a separate drive for the PS & the water pump!

So I'm sitting in Littleferry NJ right now waiting to get royally raped for a bypass repair that I kinda had to explain to 3 service stations before this one I'm at somewhat knew what I meant by measuring so they knew what size belt to put on to bypass the compressor.

The tech spent a whopping 20 minutes on the car, which includes putting on & taking off the lift.
The rest of the a little over 2 hrs was waiting on a belt.

Total damage to my CC, $176.
Now I'm homeward bound, kinda.

I'm sitting in NYC traffic.

Wow, I wish I had the stones to charge that much. By the way, what was the labor rate?
