Decoding Your Warning Lights   

Your vehicle communicates problems through various warning signs that shouldn’t be ignored, as early detection can prevent costly repairs down the road. The check engine light is the most obvious indicator that car diagnostics are needed. Other symptoms include unusual noises, vibrations, poor fuel economy, rough idling, or difficulty starting. Strange smells, whether they’re burning odors, fuel vapors, or sweet coolant scents, also warrant immediate diagnostic attention from qualified technicians. Performance issues like hesitation during acceleration, transmission slipping, or steering problems often require comprehensive diagnostic testing to identify the underlying cause. Our digital inspection process at Midas of Oxford includes photographing and documenting any concerns we discover, ensuring you understand exactly what’s happening with your vehicle. We’re conveniently located at 2613 W Oxford Loop, Oxford, MS 38655 and maintain Mon – Fri: 8PM – 6PM to accommodate your busy schedule.
