Car is in the shop (again)

About a month ago I had to take my car to the shop since I was having problems with the breaks, it cost me an arm and a leg to fix it, but at least I got it back quickly.

Yesterday coming home from work it started to overheat, had to take it to the shop again. They said the fan is not working correctly and they are not sure what is wrong with it.

I love my car ('96 Pontiac Firebird Formula) but it looks like it is starting to show its age. If it keeps giving me problems I might have to start thinking about replacing it.
