Frequently Asked Questions

What is the first thing to check when the check engine light comes on?

• Confirm vehicle: note the 2026 Nissan Kicks and whether any new noises, smells, or loss of power accompany the light.
• Check fuel cap: a loose or damaged gas cap is a common, simple cause that can trigger an EVAP code.
• Observe drivability: if the Kicks runs normally and light is steady, schedule a diagnostic soon; if performance is affected, stop driving and contact us.
• Prioritize safety and warranty: if under warranty, have diagnostics and any warranty repairs done at Crown Nissan of Greenville to protect coverage.
