Are all symbols in the Buick Encore dashboard lights warnings?

Is everything that pops up on my Buick Encore dashboard a warning for something? I see the lights pop up relatively often and would hate to think that there is always something wrong with my car.

I understand! Always seeing indicator lights flashing can be a frustrating experience if you don’t know what they mean.
As far as the
Buick Encore
dash lights are concerned, not every indicator light means there is something up with your car. There are three different categories that these lights fall into:
  • Vehicle feature symbols, including things like airbag readiness, automatic parking assist, side blind zone alert, or lane departure warning.
  • Vehicle warning symbols that alert you to your engine coolant temperature, oil pressure, seat belt functionality, and [tire pressure
  • Other vehicle symbols like your air conditioning system, vehicle power, and the Stop/Start feature.
To figure out what each symbol means, you can consult your Buick Encore owner’s manual. And if the symbols flashing in your car do turn out to mean that it needs a repair or part replacement, you can dip into all the savings you’ll see from
