Check Engine

My car is currently sporting a little orange light advising me to "Check Engine Soon".

I really wish that there were multiple lights:

"You should think about checking your engine."  In green, of course.

"Check engine soon." In orange.

"Check engine now!!" In red.

"Don't start the car. Call a mechanic and check the damn engine."  In blinking green, orange and red.

I just think it would help me know where I stand.  Mechanically speaking, that is.

Mandy my lovely Jeep sports a "check engine" light frequently....
If you take it to a local auto parts store they have a handy gadget that checks why the light is on.
sometimes its nothing....
annoying....yes
