When your vehicle won't start, it's not always the battery that is at fault. In older vehicles, the starter can be the culprit. Following are signs to look for when your starter is beginning to fail.
A grinding noise that sounds like the noise that occurs when you hit the starter right after turning on the ignition indicates that the gears may be worn out. A whining noise indicates freewheeling, which means the gear is not engaging the flywheel.
When the fuel pump in your car is failing, you will see signs that you need to be able to identify. The car engine not starting could be a clear indication the fuel pump has stopped working. If there were no issues with your battery and suddenly the car won't start, the pump might be failing.
As you drive at high speeds, one sign the fuel pump is failing is when the engine begins to surge on its own.
At the first sign of the engine overheating, action should be taken. The longer this issue persists, the chances of complete engine failure increase. If the radiator hoses are not secured to the engine or radiator, coolant is leaking out and making the engine work harder.
The radiator cap could be missing, or worse, it might be the wrong one for your vehicle. If the cap cannot contain the high pressure of the coolant, evaporation is leading to the engine overheating.
Tire pressure is crucial to safety on the road, which is why most car manufacturers create ways for drivers to monitor the amount of air that is in their tires. Many vehicles on the road today have a system with a sensor that is directly linked to the casing. This system determines how much air is in the tire and notifies the driver if underinflation is an issue. There are also indirect tire monitoring systems that do not do much to tell drivers of improper pressure.
Many take the tire sensor on their vehicle for granted, but underinflation is a…
Older vehicles do not provide the smooth ride that we know of today. Every little bump and pot hole in the road was felt by the passengers.

Your suspension can be thought of as a shock absorber. Instead of the car itself hitting other metal, it instead rests on the suspension, meaning that the hit is not as pronounced as it would have otherwise been.
Good brakes are essential for operating any vehicle safely, regardless of the age or odometer reading. Brakes should always be inspected at least annually, with a good practice being inspection at every tire rotation. Auto manufacturers generally suggest inspection at 12,000 miles if not done annually with regular servicing.
Newer model vehicles with automatic brake systems are in particular included in this maintenance schedule because there are more components that could malfunction than in a typical older model car or truck.
