<prompt> Human: I have a 2007 Hyundai elantra that I bought in 2013 that has turned out to be a nightmare . Ive replaced the engine, had to replace transmission sensors. Its got a broken strut900 and what seems to me to be a faulty electrical system and I think the transmission is likely to go in 6 months Rough shifts , high rev in first gear . Its been a bit better lately but still. There was an accident that I was not told of that I found out a the dealership this weekend. They said they would buy my car for 2000 I was offering 2500 down but could probably do more like 4000 if Im willing to sacrifice a bit of my emergency fund. Im not really comfortable paying more than 250 a month for another car but Im kind of in love with the new Mazda3 but the price per month with the trade and 2500 down would be more like 310 a month. Im kind of put off from used cars. Maybe a preowned would be fine. Would you fix the strut or just wait for the inevitable breakdown hoping for 3-4 months of run room.P.S. I am working to see if the carfax buyback will apply. I am also thinking about contacting a lawyer.Rent850High speed internet83Phone641300 12 cc1 Legal bills 600 21 CC2 180 0 CC3 Student Loans 4965 6.3 74 a month13,220.71 3.15 2,626.114.25 19,507.32 6.55 all together 435 a month1465 6.3 60 a month 8000 1 71 a month Tickets 297 due by the 21st Cash 7000 edit: income 3200 a month after tax.For CC1 I paid 1000 last month the min required was like 35 That debt is about a month old. for CC2 I paid 57CC3 is about 90 a month  <response>: Keep and fix you car.Pay your debt.Keep 2000 for your emergency funds.
