My sister has a 2009 BMW 328 ix with 124,700 miles on it. The engine had to be fixed when the car left her stranded on the highway last month; now it continues to misfire after it was fixed. I'd like her to get a new (cheap) car as she's commuting on the highway to school, and the car is pretty unsafe. It's worth about $1,500, but the worst part is the loan she has on it still has $5,200 left to pay.
Seems like a pretty dead-end situation, but I'm checking to see if anyone of you out there has better advice out there of what she should do. Of course, if you need more information, please let me know.
