My 2016 American-made car is close to reaching 100,000 miles. The last few times I visited Bell Tire, I brought it in with the check engine light on, feeling concerned.

Months later, when I got new tires for winter and asked about the light, they assured me everything was fine. But a couple of days later, the check engine light reappeared and has been on for several months now. The car hasn't had any problems other than the persistent engine light. Could it possibly be a sensor issue?
