Default Service Engine Soon Light and Survery Same Day

So today my Service Engine Soon light comes on AND I get the JD Power and Associates survey! Ironic I say. I'm really perplexed why the light is on, car idles and drives just like always, everything functions fine, oil level is perfect and clean. ~2300 miles.

Taking it in to see Lou tomorrow. Will let you all know what that code was.

It's a non-mod code. Very common. Usually you put on a 5Zigen exhaust and it clears its self..lol

Do a search, you'll find a few threads with this subject. It's most likely a loose gas cap. They are very finicky and you need to jiggle it a bit to make sure it really is on and sealed each time you fill up.

My light came on at 3000 miles, I assumed it was for service and when I took it in they told me that the "engine vent system" was kicking out the code, had to order the part and will be in next week. P.S. the light is still on.
