I have a 03 and my maintenance required light comes on randomly while on the freeway. (freaking me totally out) and then doesn't come on again when I shut off and reset engine. This is not like the warning that it does at ignition start if you haven't reset it..I am due for a oil change..guess I ought to get that done..but I heard that the light had nothing more to do with things than a mileage timer..is that true Any one had this happen?

It is nothing more than a timer and will come on about 7000 miles after you manually reset it.

that means you need to get the oil changed and if it has been changed, then your mechanic forgot to reset the reminder light. I belive the procedure to reset it is in your owners manual
