Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My check-engine light has come on three times since late november. the first time it was a cracked vacuum hose. the second time (within two weeks of fixing the first problem) it was the mass air meter. the third time, it came on 5 hours after i was rear-ended january 6th but the dealer said it was not related to the accident. they said it was the oxygen sensor. the serviceman i spoke with at the dealership said he has noticed that this model seems sensitive, causing the check-engine light to come on so frequently. i'm frustrated that none of this is under warranty and with the frequency of these occurrences.
