Engine check light came on and I had a local auto shop check it and the code indicated that the oxygen sensor needed to be replaced. The sensor was replaced and the the light reset off. After driving home an shutting off the car and then restarting the car the light was off but then a short distance down th road the light came on again. What would cause this?
