Visits to a Mazda service center are not something that most drivers look forward to, but they are a necessary component of keeping your car running like it did when you first drove it off the Fields Mazda of Asheville lot. Though our team of certified technicians recommends keeping up with your model’s service schedule, there are also a few signs that your car will exhibit when it needs a checkup.

Unusual Noises

Unfamiliar noises that did not previously occur are a likely sign of trouble. Possible noises include:

  • Grinding
  • Squealing
  • Rattling
  • Knocking

Don’t ignore these noises, as doing so can lead to more pressing issues in the future.

Warning Lights Illuminated

Your Mazda car comes with an advanced diagnostic system that will let you know when there’s an issue. If something is detected, the car’s warning lights on the dashboard will illuminate. Our technicians have the diagnostic tools to pinpoint and fix the issue.

Decreased Performance and Efficiency

If you notice that your Mazda car is more sluggish than usual or not achieving its typical gas mileage numbers, there could be a problem under the hood. These changes should not be ignored.

Fluid Leaks

Spotting fluid leaks or puddles underneath your vehicle is a likely sign of an issue. Leaking fluids can range from engine oil to coolant to brake fluid, and no matter what the fluid is, the leak should be taken care of promptly.

Shaking and Vibration

If you’re experiencing unusual shaking or vibrations while driving, it could be due to an issue with your suspension or tires. Have our technicians diagnose these issues before you find yourself broken down.
