If your “check engine” lights comes on, what do you do? Take it straight to the shop, or ignore it for a while and hope it turns off? A new survey found that 29% of folks have actually waited over a month to get it looked at. And one in seven drivers are currently driving around in a car that potentially has a serious issue. YIKES! Hopefully that’s not you.
But with that .. here are the five most common car issues we’re currently ignoring….
1. A rattling sound. 17% are currently ignoring it.
2. Brakes that squeak or grind, 15%.
3. The “check engine” light is on, also 15%.
4. A cracked windshield, 14%.
5. A leak coming from somewhere under the car, 14%.
Happy driving!
