The "check engine" light indicates that there may be an issue with the engine or related systems. It’s important to have the vehicle inspected by a mechanic to diagnose and address any potential problems.
Checking the engine oil level regularly is important for maintaining engine health. It is generally recommended to check the oil level every 3,000 miles or according to your vehicle’s manufacturer guidelines.
The anti-lock braking system (ABS) prevents the wheels from locking up during hard braking. This helps maintain steering control and stability, reducing the risk of skidding.
The power steering system helps reduce the effort needed to turn the steering wheel, making it easier and more responsive to steer the vehicle, especially at low speeds or when parking.
If the temperature gauge rises into the red zone, it indicates the engine is overheating. You should pull over to a safe location, turn off the engine, and allow it to cool down to prevent engine damage. Continuing to drive or using the air conditioning will not resolve the overheating issue.
