There’s a lot that can go wrong with a car. From your engine to your transmission to your tires to your brakes, it can feel like you’re always bringing your car into the shop. For some car owners, that convinces them to forgo trips to a service station, but that can be very dangerous. Here are some vehicle warning signs you shouldn’t ignore.
Temperature or Thermometer Light
When you spot this warning light on your dash, don’t think twice. Pull over as soon as you can and turn off your engine. This little indicator tells you that your engine is overheating—continue driving, and you risk severe damage. While there may be a minor issue like a stuck thermostat or malfunctioning temperature sensor, you can’t ignore the possibility of your engine overheating.
Unusual Smells
If you smell gasoline after filling up your tank, you probably just splashed a bit onto your shoes. If you notice strange smells unconnected with a trip to the gas station, that’s cause for immediate concern. Gasoline odors and burning smells without an obvious source mean a trip to a professional.
Brake Warning Light
You can’t drive safely without functioning brakes. A brake light can indicate either low brake fluid or an electronic problem in your braking system. A leak in your brake line may seem like there isn’t a problem until you’re suddenly without stopping power, so pull over and call a tow truck once you notice the warning light.
Noises While Accelerating
Everyone knows that cars go, “vroom,” and “beep beep,” but if you notice sounds other than these, there’s something wrong. If you hear air leaking or whistling sounds while accelerating, there might be a serious problem with your exhaust. To avoid breathing in exhaust fumes, bring your car to a mechanic as soon as possible.
Now that you know these vehicle warning signs you shouldn’t ignore, keep you and your loved ones safe and take your car into the shop!
