What is your question?
The ATS, ABS & Brake lights came on. We had the car towed and after a diagnostic we were told that the cable in the rear wheel had broken causing the ATS to deactivate. Then after the "repair" the lights came back on and we had the car towed again to the shop. Should we continue? Within the last 2 months we've bought 4 new tires, had serpentine belt, pulleys, water pump changed along with an oil change (synthetic oil). How major is fixing the latest problem. The car otherwise is great but we hate to continue if it's really time to let go since we can't continue with a money pit.

We would need to know what they have found wrong now but perhaps ask them to review your previous service records and ask them to look over the car with the purpose or suggesting recommended maintenance or things they would see that would possible fail in the next 10/20k miles. Has the transmission oil been changed/transmission serviced recently? What mileage is on your car? Look at kbb.com and on Craigslist see what a comparable car would cost.
Thanks! The car has 150,000 miles. I will approach them with your suggestions. No the transmission has not been serviced. I did check KKB she's valued at $4800 on high end & $4300 low end. Thanks again! UPDATE: mechanic said problem stemmed from a sensor that needed to be replaced. No labor charge just part: <$100.00. Also said he drove her for about 25 miles and ran well. Again, thanks!
