Default ohhh nooo

Started the truck up this morning and the MIL light came on. IDK what it could be truck seems to be running ok. the light was flashing like a turn signal so i decided to call the dealer. They told me since the light is flashing driving it is a no go. they will be sending a roll back out to take it in to the dealer. I don't know guys this isn't good only 6.5k miles and problems already.

It is seeing a problem when it is flashing. After it sees it for so long, then it will stay on steady. It probably wouldn't hurt to drive it, but since towing is free under the 3yr/36K warranty, mine as well use it

well idk why it was flashing i pulled the code before the dealer came to pick it up this morning.... p050D cold start rough idle..... really? doesn't sound like a big deal. hoping just a reset of the PCM will do the trick but we shall see. they are gonna look at it tommorrow and call me. no rental atm. didn't ask for one since i didn't need it so i'll update tommorrow.
