Use your bt cable and scan for codes you should find the problem, if not then go back to stock and dealer it.

From the sound of it, I'm guessing the OP doesn't have a BT cable. What check light is on? SES (Service Engine Soon) or CEL (Check Engine Light or known as the Half Engine). Without a way to scan your own car (it BT tool, Tune, or OBDII reader) I would advise you to bring it in and have them look at it. It can be just about anything from a simple brake light to a dead fuel pump.

That could be the service reminder telling you that your car is due for its "Vehicle Check" If that is that case its nothing to worry about and call and schedule an appointment.
