The engine oil light on your dashboard is not something to overlook. For many drivers in San Diego, this warning appears suddenly and raises questions. Is the oil level low, or is something wrong with the pressure? It could damage the engine. These concerns are valid, and waiting too long can lead to major problems like overheating, engine wear, or complete failure.

What’s covered in the initial diagnosis:
Driving with the oil light on, even for a short time, can severely damage your engine. While adding oil might seem like a quick fix, the root cause often lies deeper.
