In modern street Hebrew, "brakes" are called "brake-eem."

In Spanish (at least, "street" Spanish in the Americas) car headlights are called "hi-beemz" (high beams). A washeteria is properly a "lavanderia," but commonly (and on signage) called "wasateria" (accent on the next to last syllable). Parking your car is denominated by the infinitive verb "parkear."
