posted on 12/6/2013 1:16:57 PM
When your car's "Check Engine" light comes on, it's usually accompanied by a sinking feeling in the pit of your stomach. The light could mean a costly problem, like a bad catalytic converter, or it could be something minor, like a loose gas cap. But in many cases, it means at minimum that you'll be visiting your mechanic to locate the malfunction and get the light turned off. The Check Engine light, more formally known as the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL), is a signal from the car's engine c...

Repeated drain, such as forgetting to turn off your lights, can cause a battery to fail much earlier. Premature battery failures can be caused by defective cha...

Are All-Season Tires Right For My Vehicle? - Finn Tire & Automotive

posted on 9/4/2013 4:21:00 PM
