2015 Chevrolet Sonic Check Engine Light Codes

When the check engine light appears on a 2015 Chevrolet Sonic, the on-board codes commonly point to oxygen sensors, catalytic converter efficiency, mass air flow sensors, or turbocharger-related sensors for the 1.4L turbo. Each code signals a risk: neglected oxygen sensor faults can reduce fuel economy and damage the catalytic converter; unresolved turbo sensor problems can lead to poor performance and costly turbo repairs; and failing catalytic components can cause emissions failures and hefty replacement bills. At Larry H.
