A warning light flashes on your dash, and you have seconds to decide whether to pull over or keep driving. Guess wrong and it costs you: an unnecessary tow for something minor, or a small, cheap fix left ignored until it becomes a major repair. This guide tells you exactly which lights mean stop now and which can wait, so you're never the one paying thousands for a problem that started as a warning light you didn't understand.
