Emissions light went on after I had filled the fuel tank. In the manual, it says this could mean a blocked exhaust valve [mentions in the manual to take caution when this engine light lights up]; it also mentioned the possibility of a loose gas tank cap. Tightened the gas tank cap (wasn't loose to begin with), and the light stayed on after restart. Took it to the dealer immediately for fear of blocked-up exhaust in my cabin, and the dealer said I'd have to wait and pay for labor for a technician to check out the problem. Instead I elected to wait and see if it would go away within a few days. Drove fine for an hour on highway to work. After work, started the car and the light was off. Not sure what malfunctioned, but obviously caused me distress that was not needed.
