In many cases, your car will alert you when something’s wrong. You have lights on your dash for nearly everything nowadays, from alerts for oil changes to the dreaded “check engine” light. However, some warning signs that you car may need maintenance don’t come from your eyes - they come from your nose!
According to this infographic, many different smells can mean that something is wrong with your car. For example, if you smell gasoline while driving, it could mean that there’s a gas leak in your engine, and you should stop driving to investigate.

Other smells that may alert you to a problem in your car are simple syrup, rotten eggs, burning carpet, and more.
