ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
When driving on the freeway, a low oil pressure alert came on, so the vehicle began to lose power and sound very bad. I had to stop on the freeway and pull over to a safe place on the road to check for any leaks or lack of oil. but everything was fine, I took him to a safe place away from the highway but the noise was constant so I had to ask for help from a tow truck to take him home since I was far from it
