You take your car to the dealership and have them check your engine. There's probably something wrong with it. That's why the light came on. Ignoring it can cause a small problem to become a much bigger problem. On the other hand, some auto makers set the computers in the cars to turn that light on at a given number of miles. Some say this is so they can get more of your money by making you bring your car in for service when nothing's wrong with it. But the fact is, after a certain number of miles, you should get it checked anyway. If nothing else, it needs a tune-up. And even if that's all it needs, tuning up your engine will save you more money in gas than the tune-up will cost you.
