Pretty sure cars arent out to manipulate us. Check engine lights exist for a reason - to alert us of potential issues. Maybe its time to get that car checked out instead of blaming it for mind games.

Is it just me or does anyone else think check engine lights are just a conspiracy by car companies to make us spend more money on unnecessary repairs? Gas cap issues too? Come on!

Car companies benefit from check engine lights - its all about making money off us. Its a sneaky way to keep us coming back for repairs.

How about using a hammer to fix that check engine light? Just give it a good whack and see if it goes away. Gas cap issues? Just tape it shut, problem solved!

Thats a terrible idea. Using a hammer on your car wont magically fix the check engine light. Its important to address the actual issue properly to prevent further damage. And taping a gas cap shut is a safety hazard waiting to happen. Take your vehicle to a professional for real solutions.

Isnt it wild that some people still believe that check engine lights are just a conspiracy by car manufacturers to make more money? Like, come on, its a safety feature, not a scam.

Seriously, some folks need a reality check. Check engine lights are there for a reason, not to line pockets. Get with the program.
