Don't feel bad. The first day I owned my car I went to visit a buddy to show it off. When I started the car one of the indicator lights stayed lit on the dash and my buddy asked “what is that ?”. I got out and checked the front and rear trunk to make sure they were both closed. We took off and the light went off and I thought, “that’s pretty strange”. Stopped for some food, started the car, same thing...
The whole way home I was so mad that I bought a car with some type of problem. Got home, opened the owner’s manual, figured out it was the spoiler indicator, and felt like a total idiot !
Moral of the story – read the owners manual
