My check engine light comes on for a couple of days and then it goes off. The car is running fine. I recently had a new exhaust system installed. I've already replaced all the O2 sensors a year or two ago. Why does this happen? My car is very well taken care of

The first thing we will need to know is what the fault code (or codes) that have turned on the check engine light. There are may things that can make the light come on, from something as simple as a loose fuel cap to a major malfunction. The majority of the faults are emission related.
Most major auto parts (ie: AutoZone, Advance.) Stores will read the fault codes for you free of charge. One we have the codes we can begin diagnosing your vehicles problem.
Let me know and I'll do my best to help you solve the problem.

No problem, I'll be waiting.
I have a 2002 Sebring Convertable that I absolutely love, just wished I lived somewhere I could have the top down more often.
Take care,
Dan

I love my Sebring as well. It looks like a brand new car event though it has almost 138,000 miles on it. I treat it like a baby.

It seems I can't email you unless I post a question.

Thanks for your help.

When you have the codes just add to this post and I will get it. If you e-mail it direct to me I'm the only one who will see it, if you put it here on this post all of the 2carpros technicians and vounteers like myself will see the information so we call all help diagnose your cars issue.
Thanks for using the site and I look forward to hearing from you.
