I Bought a Car and Now I'm Afraid of Every Warning Light is a practical guide to the everyday responsibilities of owning a vehicle. Max Paradox explores servicing, insurance, records, costs, and basic care for readers who want to be informed owners without pretending to be mechanics.   The book explains what information you need, where to find it, how to plan routine maintenance, understand warning lights, compare costs, and keep useful records. It helps drivers approach repairs and insurance with clearer questions and calmer decisions.   You do not need to become a mechanic.
