Mechanics checking a vehicle

When do I need to get my vehicle serviced?

Sometimes, it can be difficult to determine when you need to get your vehicle serviced. After all, you have maintenance done regularily, get the oil changed and tires rotated on time, so why is your car making that noise? Here are some warning signs that indicate you may need to get your car in to the shop.

Why is my car making a noise?

If your vehicle is making a strange noise, chances are it needs a tune up or additional care. Here are some of the other signs that indicate your vehicle should be in the shop:

  • Strange smells
  • If your car makes noise 
  • If your car doesn’t want to start
  • If your gas mileage starts to go down
  • Stalling out
  • If your car doesn’t want to accelerate at a normal speed
  • Dashboard lights

Don’t forget one of the best resources you have on knowing your vehicles health are the dashboard lights. Many drivers tend to ignore them in hopes that it will simply go away, but if your dashboard light turns on, you may want to schedule a service appointment soon.
