Well, after only 4 days of owning my dream car, I was taking my wife to her hair salon and looked down at my display to find my check engine light was on. I didn’t notice any drivability issues, but still, I kept wondering WTF is going on already. So I dropped my wife off at her salon and promptly went to the dealership where I bought the car. My salesman noticed I pulled up and he came out to greet me. After telling him why I was there, he escorted me over to the service bay where the lady behind the counter told me there were no techs working today (Saturday) that could read the code for the error. She suggested that I enable my free trial of On Star, and they could tell me the error code associated with this issue, so I did just that. They said it was code P0455, so I passed that code along to the service lady. She checked what that code meant and said it could be as simple as a loose gas cap, among other things. Well, as we know, I don’t have a gas cap, so not likely that. She did say it appears to be nothing serious, and that it is safe to continue driving it, but it will need to come in for assessment. I have an appointment tomorrow afternoon.
I have been monitoring my blood pressure the last few months as per my doctors advice, which had been good since he put me on a low dose blood pressure medicine, but I tell you, I just knew it was high yesterday, so I check and guess what.....I was correct. It was higher than it had been in a long time. Sheesh, this issue, although seemingly minor, stressed me out.
I shall update when I learn what occurred.
Thanks for reading the rant.
Dale.
