Hello,

Last week I had two new front tires put on my car and then last night while driving, the service suspension message came on. It is odd because a couple of weeks ago I brought it in for an oil change and told the guys that something seemed off. There was one engine light on which I cannot remember which, but they ran diagnostics and it appeared to them that it ran fine and they cleared the code. The service guys told me to watch it and come back if any other lights/warnings come on which non have up until last night. This warning is different from the first one.

My questions are:
1) Could the tire replacements have anything to do with this message appearing?
2) It is Friday and will I cause the car damage or be in any physical risk if I drive it two short distances this weekend at no higher then fifty mph, and then bring it in Monday?

Thank you very much for your time!

If the tires had something to do with it, it should have shown up earlier. The best thing to do is scan the codes which is easy follow this guide.
