I just had to guess that the bolt was under the rubber grommet, and pry the thing up... The bolt was shiny and new-looking because it was inside and protected by the rubber grommet. It's interesting that you mention rust connected with spare tires on minivans...

My mother heard a dropping sound when she pulled out of her driveway one day... When she got back home there was a wheel lying there. The cable attaching the spare tire to that bolt had rusted through with all the salt that they use...

certainly one shitty period... are car is a bit like that and I don't know if I could change it easily... wasn't the bolt rusted, between the flat and the puker... no fun...

@frozencanuckreviews ..the taxie is cheaper than the ambulance

I spray it with so much disinfectant cleaner that all I smell is the cleaner. It's easier in winter because the cold makes the smell less penetrating. Then I wipe and scrub with plenty of paper towels so I don't have to touch it. Back in the days when we drove ex-police cars with rubber and vinyl interiors I used to go to the car wash where they have the high-pressure wand, and blast the interior with soap and water. To dry it out I'd crank the heater and it would be dry in only a few minutes!

Goodness... cleaning up someone vomit makes me want to vomit! Andy I don't know how you do it. Hugs!

Better yet, get all your puking done and be dry heaving before you get in any moving vehicle! The motion will make you sick...

We probably won't see an uncommon era in our lifetime...

Is it the bolts or the Caravans that are flipping? After driving the Caravan almost daily for two and a half years I wouldn't buy one as a private vehicle...

I wish everyone had nice and legible numbers that are easy to find. I usually look towards the front door because we don't have mailboxes at the street...

People should only travel when they feel well in my opinion...
