Warning lights

Service due / maintenance reminder

The car has reached its scheduled service interval by mileage or time.

Urgency:Service soon

Is it safe to keep driving?

Yes. It is a reminder, not a fault — but skipping the service shortens the life of the engine and voids some warranties.

Likely causes

  • Mileage or time since the last reset service

Typical repair cost (US)

$60 – $400

An oil change at the low end; a major interval service at the high end.

A typical range, not a quote. Actual cost depends on the car, the shop and the fault.

What to do now

  1. Book the service. Ask the shop to reset the reminder afterwards — many forget.
