There is no simple way to turn off the check engine light on the 2017 Chevy Impala. The light signals a problem in the car, which could stem from various issues. Instead of wasting time trying to identify a potential problem, it is recommended to have a mechanic use an OBD tool to scan the car and provide the trouble code that points to the specific issue. Once you are aware of the problem, you can proceed with fixing it, leading to the light turning off. However, do check the gas cap and fuel door first, as a missing cap or an open door can trigger the light unnecessarily. Fixing this on your own is simple and can save you a trip to the mechanic.
