It’s safe to say that most, if not all, drivers have experienced a vehicle problem at one point or another.
Thankfully, our vehicles are more intuitive than we think.
They have mechanisms and technologies designed to alert you when something is amiss, to keep you safe on the road, and to even diagnose the issue where possible.
This is especially true for newer vehicles — hello, TESLA ;)
That said, many common car problems come into our shop, which you can avoid when you take proper care.
Here are the five most popular problems we see:
1. Bad battery
2. Worn out spark plugs
3. Loose fuel caps and clogged fuel pumps
4. Tire troubles
5. Worn oxygen sensors and catalytic converters
So now we want to ask you: have you ever had one of these problems before? If so, which one? What did you — or your trusty mechanic — do to fix it?
