If only they had a sensor and warning lights for failing ball joints.
You better don't carry this your ignorance to heaven, you may miss it with just that. What makes you think it's only Honda that has ball joint issues and what makes you it the car actually has ball joint issues? Continue buying China made ball joint you hear?
Don't maintain your Toyota and see if the legs won't pull.

And who made this assertion?

You are in too much haste to defend the brand. Honda cars (which is the subject of this thread) are great and most people know that some models are prone to severe ball joint failures and as such will apparently benefit from what I suggested.

If it's possible to have sensors tell you the state of every critical component of a car every manufacturer will key into it. That's the basis of manufacturer wide OBD-II fault detection in cars.

You're right there but I don't think hard components like ball joints that do not have any electric attachment to a car mainly because they are in the tyre area can have a sensor attached to them. I don't know sha, I'm not an engineer.

There are many warning lights that can illuminate on your Honda car dashboard. These warning lights can come on as a result of one issue or the other.

These dashboard warning lights illuminate to easily get the attention of the driver about something not being right in the car.

The colour of the warning light that comes up on your Honda dashboard could be green, yellow or red.

If you see something green, it’s usually an on or off indicator light, such as your cruise control. The indicator is simply there to remind you that a system is on so that if you should be turning it off, you’ll remember.

The yellow dashboard warning lights represent issues that could get dangerous soon. These lights typically mean a system, or monitoring of the system, has malfunctioned. Technically speaking, low fuel or low tire pressure are warnings that could lead to something much worse if left unchecked, but they don’t indicate an issue that would make your vehicle inoperable.

A red warning light often indicates a serious condition. It is not all of them that mean there is a serious malfunction. Something like seat belt reminder means no harm to your car. Others, like the high-temperature warning, can mean your vehicle will likely have a catastrophic failure if you continue driving.

Below are the warning lights you can see on your Honda dashboard.

The Check engine sign is.constantly show on my dashboard after servicing. The engine oil wss refillied and filter replaced. However, the engine oil used was Mobile super XHP 20W-50 as against the ecommended oil which is SAE 50-20W. Reason being that the recommended oil is not available in Nigeria.
Pls what should I do to resolve the check engine sign on the dashboard. How serious is it? The car is Honda Pilot and just arrived as tokunbo.

My advice is to use the recommend oil 5w20 ...we have genuine engine oil dealer on the forum ..so getting 5w20 grade should not be an issue ..never use Mobil xhp 20w50 especially if it is not the recommend oil to use .. You could damage that engine in the long run ...for the check engine light issue, I will advice you to take your car to Radauto in Lekki.. It is better you spend the money now than spend double the amount down the line ....

Before it is too late change the Mobil xhp 20w50 to the reccomend oil 5w20 .. Radauto is in Lekki, just Google the address .. They can help you get to the bottom of the check engine light issue..
I do have 5w20 Mobil 1 coming in for 17k ..
