Is your vehicle’s check engine light on? Do you have any other dash lights illuminated?

Dash lights could be a possible warning sign of sometimes complicated issues with your vehicle that may require diagnostics by a qualified professional to determine the cause of the issue and any drivability concerns. Freestate Auto’s experienced technicians will scan your vehicle’s computer with their specialized scan tools and software to access any history codes stored in the vehicle’s computer memory. If a code has been triggered in the memory because the vehicle encountered a fault or issue, the check engine light and dashboard lights will illuminate based on the severity of the fault code. The colors of the warning lights will indicate the severity of the issue. For example, green indicates a general reminder and yellow/amber indicates that it is time to schedule a service appointment to have the vehicle looked at by one of Freestate’s technicians to get a proper diagnosis and repair. A red-colored dash light indicates that you should stop the vehicle immediately and call for a tow in order to avoid causing any further damage to the vehicle’s engine or any other mechanical components.
