Check Engine Light in
Lakeland, FL

Your check engine light is part of your vehicle’s onboard diagnostic system (OBD-II), and it’s designed to alert you when your engine, emissions, or other key systems aren’t performing as they should. The light may indicate something minor, like a sensor issue, or something more serious that could affect fuel efficiency, emissions output, or even your engine’s longevity. Unfortunately, without proper diagnostic equipment, it’s nearly impossible to know what the light means—or how urgent the problem is.

That’s why it’s so important to bring your vehicle to a trusted professional when the light comes on. At Joyce Automotive and Towing, we use state-of-the-art scan tools to retrieve diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) and interpret them accurately. From there, our ASE-certified technicians perform a thorough inspection to confirm the source of the problem and recommend the best course of action. We don’t rely on guesswork—we follow a proven process backed by training, technology, and real-world experience. As a AAA-approved shop offering repairs covered by the CAR warranty, we provide peace of mind with every diagnostic and repair. Ignoring the light could lead to engine damage, reduced performance, or failing an emissions test—so don’t delay when you see it. Bring your car to the experts who care.
