Stop safely now
Oil pressure
The engine isn't getting enough oil pressure. Running it like this can wreck the engine in minutes.
What to do
Pull over when it's safe and switch the engine off. Check the oil level, and don't drive on until you know why it came on.
Stop safely now
Engine temperature
The engine is overheating, often from low coolant, a leak or a failed fan.
What to do
Pull over and switch off. Let it cool before you touch anything, and never open a hot radiator cap.
Check before driving
Brake system
The parking brake is on, the brake fluid is low, or the brake system has a fault.
What to do
Make sure the parking brake is fully off. If the light stays on, get the brakes checked before you drive any further.
Go straight to a shop
Battery / charging
The charging system isn't topping up the battery, usually the alternator or its belt. The car runs until the battery goes flat.
What to do
Turn off extras like heat and the stereo, and drive straight to a shop. Avoid switching the engine off on the way.
Book a check soon
Airbag
The airbag system has found a fault, so the airbags may not go off in a crash.
What to do
The car still drives normally, but book a check soon, especially if you carry kids or passengers.
Steady: book soon · Flashing: ease off now
Check engine
The engine computer has logged a fault. It can be as small as a loose gas cap or as serious as a misfire.
What to do
Steady light: book a check in the next few days. Flashing light: ease off, avoid hard acceleration and get it looked at right away.
Book soon
ABS
The anti-lock braking system is switched off. Your normal brakes still work, but the wheels can lock up in a hard stop.
What to do
Leave extra room in the wet and book a check. If the red brake light is on too, stop and get help.

Tire pressure
At least one tire is low. Cold mornings can trigger it too.
What to do
Check all four with a gauge and fill them to the pressure on the sticker inside the driver's door. If it keeps coming back, you likely have a slow leak.

“I needed to have my oil changed and have a general check up. The price was beyond reasonable. I was very surprised. The owner was very friendly and nice. He was honest in letting me know what he could do (overall check up & oil change) and what he may not be able to do (AC fix). I will definitely return.”
