GOOD CALL GARAGE / DASHBOARD NOTES

A dashboard light came on. What next?

Record the symbol, read the vehicle’s instructions and describe how it is running.

Record the symbol, read the vehicle’s instructions and describe how it is running.

01 / GOOD TO KNOW

Identify the actual symbol

Take a photo only when safely parked. Note the symbol, color, any written message and whether it is steady or flashing. Warning-light meanings and recommended actions differ by model; your owner’s manual is the first reference.

02 / GOOD TO KNOW

Notice how the car is behaving

Tell us about rough running, unusual noise, changed braking or steering feel, or anything else that appeared with the light. Do not assume a light means a particular part needs replacement.

03 / GOOD TO KNOW

Follow the manufacturer’s instruction

Some messages call for prompt service; others require stopping the vehicle. If the manual says to stop, or the car feels unsafe, do not continue driving to see whether the light disappears. Arrange the appropriate assistance from a safe location.

04 / GOOD TO KNOW

Make the diagnostic conversation easier

Send your vehicle details, a photo of the symbol or message, ZIP code and symptoms. If you already have a code report, share it as background. A code or photograph alone does not replace vehicle-specific checks.

Year + make + model
