Just as the title states. I dropped off my 2013 frs (105k miles) last Wednesday, 1/19 for the recall. They did the work as well as replace the spark plugs that I supplied which I was gonna do myself but might as well asked them since the engine was gonna be out.

Fast forward to today, I picked up my car before I went to work. Drove it for about 20 minutes to get some breakfast. Got back into my car and drove for about a minute then all of suddenly my CEL came on along with the slip light. I called my dealership stating the problem and they said to bring it back. I couldn’t because I had to open up the store for the other employees today.

I won’t be able to bring my car back to Toyota until Tuesday or so because of work. My only concern right now is getting my car back home and it’s supposed to snow later this afternoon. I have blizzaks but having the slip light on worries me.

Just curious if anyone has experienced the same problems after they had their car serviced for the recall?
