If you notice any of these signs, book a service with SollBridge immediately. Our technicians can diagnose and fix the issue before it gets worse.
Unusual noises from your vehicle are often the first indication of a developing problem. Squealing brakes or knocking sounds from the engine are clear indicators that your car needs professional attention. These noises often signal worn brake pads or engine problems that should be addressed immediately to prevent more serious damage.
Modern vehicles are equipped with sophisticated diagnostic systems that monitor various components. When a warning light appears on your dashboard, it's your car's way of telling you something needs attention. Different warning lights indicate various issues, from minor maintenance requirements to serious mechanical problems that require immediate attention.
Fluid leaks are another critical warning sign that should never be ignored. Spots or puddles under your parked car could indicate serious problems with your vehicle's systems. Different colored fluids can help identify the source - from engine oil to transmission fluid, brake fluid, or coolant. Any fluid leak should be inspected by a professional to prevent potential system failure and ensure your safety on the road.
