    Taking your car to the mechanic is nobody’s idea of fun. It’s usually going to cost you quite a bit of money and that puts a lot of people off going to the mechanics to get repairs done. The problem is, if you neglect those repairs, you’ll find yourself spending twice as much later on when the car packs up completely. It’s important to get it repaired as soon as there’s an issue so things don’t get worse. These are some of the common car problems that you might experience.

    Flat Battery

    This is a surprisingly common cause of car repairs and most of the time it only happens because of people accidentally leaving lights overnight. They come down in the morning and find that the battery is flat and they can’t drive the car. It’s not always your fault, sometimes batteries can go wrong because there are loose connections, this is especially likely in the winter. You can try charging it overnight every couple of weeks to reduce the risk of it running down.

    Alternator Faults

    If you’re having trouble with the battery more regularly and your headlights are often dim when you come to a stop, that’s a sign that you’ve got problems with your alternator. You’ll need to take it down to an auto repair place pretty quickly. If you don’t you’ll keep getting problems with your battery and risk breaking down while you’re driving.

    Clutch Cables

    This is a pretty serious one because if your clutch cable snaps completely while you’re driving, you could be in serious danger. Luckily, you’ll be able to tell for quite a while before it breaks completely. You should notice a difference in the way that it feels when you step on the clutch. As soon as you notice any significant change, get it down to the mechanic straight away and have them look at it.

    Damaged Wheels

    Over the years all the slight bumps and knocks that your car gets take their toll on the wheels. There are a couple of ways that you can tell whether your wheels are damaged or out of line. Uneven wear on the tread is one of the biggest signs to look out for because it shows that it might be out of line. Get it down to the repair place and ask them to check for you, then they can realign them if needs be. Always keep a spare tire with you in case of issues, and when you’re driving with a heavy load, adjust your tire pressure to cope with it so you avoid damaging the wheels and tires.

    Starter Motor

    Starter motors are pretty tough and they tend to last a long while so you shouldn’t worry too much about this if your car is fairly new but it’s something to watch out for in older cars. If you’re ever having trouble with the ignition that’s going to be a problem with the starter motor. Most problems should get picked up when the car is serviced so they shouldn’t get too serious.

    These are the common car repairs you should always be on the lookout.
