A check engine light can be triggered by several issues, ranging from something simple like a loose gas cap to more serious problems like a failing catalytic converter. For accurate diagnostics, bring your vehicle to Chantilly Motors and let our professionals read the OBD code.

Engine repair times vary depending on the complexity of the issue. Some repairs can be completed in a few days, while more extensive rebuilds may take several weeks. At Chantilly Motors, we strive to complete repairs efficiently while ensuring the highest quality.

A loose gas cap is the most common reason for a check engine light to illuminate. However, it’s essential to have the issue diagnosed by a professional, as it could also signal more severe engine issues.

A flashing check engine light signals a severe problem that requires immediate attention. If your check engine light is flashing, pull over and contact Chantilly Motors for advice or assistance.

Signs that your spark plugs need replacing include engine hesitation during acceleration, rough idling, sluggish performance, and poor fuel economy. If you're experiencing any of these symptoms, visit Chantilly Motors for a thorough inspection.

Not always. In some cases, extensive damage, such as a cracked engine block, may require a complete engine replacement rather than repairs. Our technicians will provide a thorough assessment and recommend the best course of action for your vehicle.
