“If only I had known earlier...”

Too many car owners say this after a small, unnoticed issue balloons into a major (and expensive) disaster. At Ajebo Fix, we believe that with the right attention, most of these heartbreaks can be avoided.

1. Silent Brake Wear – The Quiet Killer


Your car might still stop, but are your brakes silently screaming?


Worn brake pads can reduce stopping power drastically. Many drivers ignore the early signs, like a subtle squeal or longer stopping distance, until it becomes a full-blown emergency.




💡 Pro Tip: If you’re not sure, our Free Trial Plan includes a brake pad replacement reminder — because safety shouldn’t be left to chance.


2. Tiny Oil Leaks – Massive Engine Trouble Ahead


That faint oil stain in your driveway? Not “normal.”


Even minor oil leaks can cause engine overheating, seizures, or complete failure. Left unchecked, you’re looking at repairs that could run into hundreds of thousands of Naira.


🛠️ Our maintenance plans send timely oil change reminders and include monthly fluid level checks so you never miss a beat.


3. Unseen Battery Trouble – Until Your Car Won’t Start


Batteries don’t just die — they fade.


You could be just one step away from being stranded. Most people don’t check battery health until it’s too late.


⚡ With Ajebo Fix, you’ll get battery health checks every 3 months (Standard & Pro Plans) and emergency assistance when things go wrong.


4. Air Filters – The Dirty Secret Affecting Fuel and Health


You may not feel it now, but a clogged air filter can:

  • Reduce your fuel efficiency

  • Affect your engine’s performance

  • Send dirty air into your cabin


Breathe cleaner and drive smarter. Our Pro Plan includes air filter replacements every 12 months.


5. Tire Trouble – Quietly Wearing Your Safety Away


Uneven wear? Low pressure? Unseen punctures?


Tires are your car’s only connection to the road. A small issue can cause blowouts, accidents, or expensive suspension damage.


🛞 We’ve got you, with monthly tire inspections in our Standard and Pro Plans.


6. Coolant System Problems – A Hidden Heatstroke


Coolant levels drop slowly... until your engine overheats and stops on the express.

Signs? A slight temperature gauge rise or a sweet smell under the hood. But most people don’t notice until it’s too late.


🥵 Our Standard & Pro Plans include coolant flush reminders — keeping your car calm and cool under pressure.


7. Suspension & Steering Issues – The Invisible Danger


Your car still moves, but does it drift? Shake? Feel unstable?


Most people ignore these signs, thinking they’re “normal.” But they could mean a serious issue with your steering or suspension, risking both safety and massive repair bills.


🧠 Ajebo Fix subscribers get inspections every 6 months to catch problems early.
