Lots of things can cause it, take it to autozone and they will scan it for free, post the codes back.

could be time for a tuneup.

When our Kia was new we had a problem with the sensor going off due to the fuel cap not being tightened at least 3 clicks.
Get your code read at the dealer and keep a paper copy for any warrenty work you may need. We had to replace our transmission just under 100,00 miles. Most of the miles we drove were highway, free flowing too.
