A Southern California Chevrolet owner brought her 2014 Silverado 1500 into a repair shop with a customer complaint slip that read “feels skippy on the freeway, tires are good, check engine light flashed.” In the video that captured the mechanic's assessment, that description became a running joke.
The shop’s main technician walked around the truck for about a minute, looked at the rubber, and made a very different assessment, finding that the tires were bald, the spare was leaking, and the light she saw flashing was the traction control system catching wheels spinning, not a Check Engine warning.
