Frequently Asked Questions About Regular Jeep® Service
A strange sound from the engine or an unusual smell can mean trouble for your vehicle. If you need Jeep® service, whether just an oil change or a deeper inspection, our Twin Lakes Jeep dealership is at your side to answer your questions and return your car to prime condition.
Q: How Frequently Should I Get My Car Inspected?
A: In addition to the annual inspections mandated by states, it’s a good idea to have your car generally inspected every few months. Your oil might not always be ready for a change, but scheduling regular service for your Jeep Cherokee or other vehicle gives the opportunity for our experienced technicians to catch any other issues early.
Q: What Does the “Check Engine” Light Mean?
A: Everyone’s least-favorite dashboard light sadly doesn’t offer much information. When this light flashes, it usually indicates that something is wrong with your vehicle’s ignition system. Sometimes, the issue can be fixed with a replaced spark plug or fuse.
Other times, it can indicate more serious repairs that require genuine MOPAR® OEM Jeep parts in order to fix. When you see this signal, the best course of action is to visit our service center so our technicians can run diagnostics on your engine and determine the exact cause.
Q: Why Are My Brakes Making a Strange Noise?
A: A troublesome brake system can be a pain to deal with, but sometimes your car may give you signs that trouble is lurking, giving you an opportunity to get ahead of potentially costly repairs. The whining that brakes sometimes make can be an example of this.
The brake pads on your vehicle thin across the course of regular use. When they’re worn low enough, they emit a faint squeaking sound to alert the driver of the issue. Sometimes, this sound is only a minor issue or related to recent damp driving conditions, but smart drivers take their car for service at the first sign of trouble.
