Dreaded light came on.. Checked gas cap - didn't work.
Stopped by AutoZone - gave code P31A8 - no description. Anyone had it?
Taking to a dealer tomorrow, will see what they say.
Had the DAS recall done about 3 weeks ago (recalibrated), hopefully not it.

I happened to have a tech here when I looked at this. So don't ask me to look these up for you guys in the future.

But this is some sort of communications/sensor error. Dealer should be able to reset and check. Don't freak out.

Thanks! I was about to have a mental breakdown!!

I will update when I find out what it was.

So check engine went off right when I was about to take it to a dealer. Still took it - they didn't find any error codes or anything. I guess should've taken it when it was on.

Also wanted to do an alignment as the steering wheel is a little bit off center, but the service adviser told me they don't even have the specs to do an alignment on this model?! But when they drove it, it didn't pull and steering wheel looked fine. Is that even possible for a dealer not to be able to align the car??

Not sure about the alignment part.
Since you have das, there is a way to force it to recenter your steering wheel.

Maybe search the forum for alingment and you should find it?

I don't know where that thread is off hand.

I also had the check engine light come on. Took it to the dealer and the code was improper air/fuel ratio. They replaced the rear O2 sensor and I haven't had the problem since.
