What's Wrong with My Car?

Could be a lot of things, and your safety could be at risk. If you are having any of the problems below, you should call Damian right away.

 

 

1. Weird Noise

like groaning or growling, screeching or squealing, chirping coming from places like under the hood, behind the dashboard, around the tires, under the car, or behind the car. Loud exhaust, break screech, transmission grinding, whistles from the engine, belt noise, slapping, tapping, clicking, no power steering failure, and power steering noise while turning or backing up all fall into this category.

 

2. Weird Vibration

like rattling, shaking, hard starts, brakes pulsating, uneven breaking, tires shaking, engine rattling the whole car, hard gear switches, delay in gear switching, heavy thuds, shocks hitting hard, hesitation, transmission problems like getting stuck in gear,  rough running, rough idle, stumbling engine, or even stalling while driving and stalling on hills all are reasons to call right away.

 

3. Weird Smell

like when you smell gas under the hood, the smell gas in the car, smell burning when the heater is on or see smoke when the heater is on. Other bad smells are the smell of burning plastic, the smell of burning rubber, and a burning smell when you get out of the car.

 

4. Weird Electrical Problem

like turn signals not coming on, turn signals not flashing, only one turn signal coming on, turn signal flashing fast, hazard lights won’t turn on, no air conditioning, no heat, no air blowing from the vents, vents not switching, power windows not working, power doors not locking or unlocking, no power at all, no ignition, problems with the alternator, and issues like needing to be jumped a lot and always coming out to a dead battery.
