At the Mechanic: My Car Is Making a Strange Noise

Morning! What can I do for you?

Hi. My car's been making a strange noise.

Okay. When do you hear it?

Mostly when I turn a corner.

It's like a bang... and then a roll.

Right. Let's take it for a little drive.

There! Did you hear that?

Hmm, yes. That's a funny sound.

Is it the engine? Please say it isn't the engine.

I don't think so. Let's look underneath.

So, how bad is it?

Well, the good news is, the engine's fine.

Oh, thank goodness!

But your brake pads are quite old.

You'll need new ones in a month or two.

Okay... and how much will that cost?

We'll talk about that later. But first...

I think I've found your strange noise.

Wait... is that my water bottle?

Yep. It was rolling around under your seat.

Oh no. I've been looking for it for weeks!

I feel so silly now.

Don't worry. It happens all the time.

Last week, a man brought in a car full of tennis balls!

Ha! So, do I owe you anything today?

Not today. Just come back for those brakes.

I will. Thank you so much!
