It all depends on why the light is on and what the problem is. If the engine is running great and you see no loss of power or MPG then you do not have to rush to get it repaired. But do get it looked into within the next few months.
The light is one because there is a problem with the emissions system. Once the problem is corrected the service tech will reset the light.

The Check Engine Light comes on when the ECU has detected a problem with the emissions system. Have the ECU scanned with an OBD2 scanner to retrieve the code that has been set. That code will tell you where to start looking for the problem. Once the problem is repaired you will need an OBD2 scan tool to reset the light.
If the Check Engine light is on, then you have a problem with the emissions system. Once the repair is made the light must be reset with an OBD2 scan tool. If you do not repair the problem the light will just come back on.

Emissions testing is no longer required in Florida. It was once a yearly test of your vehicle at a state emissions facility and costed $10.00.
The check engine light (service engine soon) comes on and stays on when a problem is detected by the self diagnosis system of your vehicle. Generally, the problem is in the emissions or something that is affecting the effectiveness of the emissions, but other causes can trigger the light to come on, too. To determine the cause, the vehicle will need to be taken to AutoZone or a shop that has an OBD2 scanner, or for 1995 and earlier models, an OBD1 scanner, While a scanner will not give you the magic answer, it will give you a code that narrows down the problem area.
