VDC Light comes on intermittantly and engine dies

To preface this, my son inherited my old 06 Path 4X4 with about 210K now. So, for the last 10K-12K it has had the love and detailed attention of a 17 year old boy.... :o On occasion the VDC/Slip light will illuminate and it has died a couple of times while he is driving. The reason I am suspicious i...

Have you already done an alignment? Did it solve it? I'm going to be replacing these tires soon, so I had been holding out on the alignment.

Upper Control Arm Spindle spins freely

I am changing my front struts. Being relatively new to this I started to disassemble the front suspension. I backed the nut most of the way off the upper control arm spindle bolt and tapped with a hammer to break the seal between the control arm and upper suspension arm. I left the nut on a few thre...
