When to Schedule a Diagnostic Test

It’s essential to know when to bring your vehicle in for a diagnostic test. Here are some common scenarios, in addition to the obvious signs like a check engine light or poor fuel economy:

Before a Long Road Trip: Avoid road trip disruptions caused by car troubles. A proactive diagnostic test can identify potential issues before hitting the road, ensuring a smoother journey.
