My credit still sucks from mistakes I made going to college. The only advice I can give from my experience is to get her to go into a bank and get them to look at her credit rating and make sure all of the hits are completely off of it. Then maybe get a pre-paid credit card to start building credit again.

As for a car her best bet is to save up a very generous size deposit to put down on something and then search around for a dealership that can make something happen. For instance, depending on how bad her credit is, if she were to put down $6,000 on a $12,000 car then I think she'd have an easier time finding a dealership that could make something happen.
