"I was tired of paying $150 just for the dealership to tell me what a warning light meant. I plugged in my adapter, opened Car Mate, and it instantly identified a faulty oxygen sensor. I fixed it myself for thirty dollars and cleared the code. This app is a must-have for every car owner who wants to take control of their repairs and avoid getting overcharged."
