Why did my check engine light come on then go back off the next day?

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My check engine light came on while sitting at bank
drive thru, but the next day it went off. Do I still
need to have it checked out?

Scan for codes. Without knowing the codes we can't help you. Make sure your gas cap is on tight.

Go to AutoZone and they'll scan your codes for free, but they won't erase them. Get back to us with the codes.
