Dreaming of car troubles mean your goals are currently put on hold by an unseen obstacle. While your car looks perfectly normal on the outside, a mechanical failure on the inside keeps you from going to your destination.
It is time to reevaluate yourself internally to find out what is keeping you from reaching your next level of potential, because your peers see you accomplishing nothing as time continues to pass on by.
In my dream, my car broke down as I was driving down a dirt road leading to the beach. The car is brand new though, so I don’t understand how it could encounter problems so soon.
