    ok so i bought an 88' festiva LX... and it's got its fair share of problems.... i know little to nothing about cars and even less about this one. it was donated to an action and then i bought it from a person who got it from them. so it runs fine... but im getting bad mileage and it leaks in all the windows. the passange window wont role up or down its pretty damage on the passengers side the fender is pushed back along with some of the door. the wheel has been moved back but it doesn't seem too effect the driving any. my questions are, where can i find molding for the windows, and a new setup too make the window go up and down and then what could be killing my mileage. and then for future refference where could i find a compatable engine to swap with the one thats in there... i believe its stock i would safely assume it is. i live in oregon if that helps at all. O YEA! that reminds me my heat also doesn't work... well it kinda does it takes forever too get warm and it doesn't get that warm and it only come out of the top mof the dash and the floor... it will only blow cold air out of the dash, is that how it's suposed too work or is there something wrong and my back window defog doesn't work and is there any way too get a wiper on my back window? cause my model doesn't have one plese help me any advise of any kind will help! i will do my best too add pictures once i get some thank you for your help!

    Everything you're asking about is covered in past discussions here - use the search function. As soon as possible, have someone look at the wheel which has been "moved back" - that's not good at all, very possibly dangerous. Stick to side streets and go slow until you get that assessed / fixed.

            Buy another festiva it seems to work for everyone else. if you want a rear wiper buy a parts car with one too. or a hatch with one. they wire right in. the heated glass may have some breaks in the conductors or the wire is off or the fuse is out.
            The heat only comes out the defrost and floor, the dash vents are for fresh air. Window regulators are on e-bay or for sale on here.
            A 195 degree thermostat will help with the heat and fuel mileage.
