Something is wrong with my vehicle…why isn't Mechanic Advisor picking up on it?

Posted January 14, 2016

While Mechanic Advisor can decipher a lot of issues related to your vehicle, there are some make-specific warning lights or codes that aren't noted by the OBD-II system. A few examples of this are the air pressure, ABS and low fuel lights. When you encounter one of these lights, if you're unsure what the problem might be, the best solution would be to take your car into a mechanic familiar with your car make.


If your vehicle is showing physical symptoms of something being wrong, but nothing is showing up as an issue, you can always post to our “Ask a Mechanic” section and see if a mechanic might know what the issue is.
