Warning Lights 

One of the easiest ways to tell that it’s time to visit our service center is by paying attention to the lights on your dashboard. If you ever see the words “service” or “check engine” light up on your dashboard, come see us. 

Odd Vibrations 

If you notice any sort of strange vibrations occurring while you’re behind the wheel, there could be an issue with either your engine or suspension system. Your best bet is to visit us at any sign of abnormalities.

Braking Issues 

If your brakes no longer feel as responsive or effective as they used to, you could have worn out your brake pads or have other issues with your GMC parts. Usually, you can expect to have your brake pads replaced around every 30,000 miles driven. 

Smoke or Steam 

If ever notice steam coming from under your hood, there could be an issue with your vehicle’s heating and cooling. Similarly, smoke from your hood means that the motor oil inside your car is likely burning. 

Strange Leak 

If there’s ever a puddle of liquid underneath your vehicle, there could be a fluid leak. Pay attention to the color to determine the problem – black or dark brown means your motor oil is leaking, while red or dark red means transmission fluid.

Uneven Tread Wear 

As you drive and your tires begin to wear down, you might experience uneven tire wear patterns. Uneven tread wear means it may be time to schedule a tire rotation! Be sure to inspect your suspension and also the GMC tires to see if they are under- or overinflated.
