dashboard lit up like a christmas tree · multiple warning lights at once
Several unrelated dashboard warning lights (for example ABS, battery, power steering and traction control together) all illuminate at the same time.
Check the battery terminals for looseness or corrosion first - a single bad connection commonly explains many lights coming on together.
Not recommended for more than a short distance. Multiple lights at once often means several safety systems (ABS, traction control) may not be functioning.

Speedometer not working or reading incorrectly
WarningThe speedometer reads zero regardless of actual speed, jumps erratically, or shows an obviously incorrect speed.
Fuel gauge is stuck or reads inaccurately
InfoThe fuel gauge stays stuck at one level (often full or empty) regardless of actual fuel level, or fluctuates unpredictably.
Clock or radio settings keep resetting
InfoThe clock, radio presets or other saved settings repeatedly reset to default, as if the car had lost power completely.
Grinding noise when braking
SeriousA harsh, metallic grinding or scraping sound that happens specifically when you press the brake pedal, often worse at low speed.
