Haven't had it diagnosed yet.Ignorance is bliss eh? I'll see if I can get down to autozone and have it checked and I'll get back to you on that one.

you can pull the code yourself. turn the key to the on (dont start) and then off again 3 times. on the third time leave it in the on position and your OD will show the code!

Nice to know on getting your own code, if your not #$!$# w/ me.
I took it to the dealership immediately and they told me it needed a software upgrade without checking anything. They said it would probably go off if I took a 50 mile ride or so, and it did. So I paid no attention and let it go. Then it came on again for a day and went off again. Anyone here of the software upgrade?

Oncein 34,000 miles. Went to AutoZone and they scaned for free. Bad presure due to loose gas cap. When you are there, ask them also check "pending codes." This identifies variations that are still with in tolerances.
