CEL Gamble
Check engine light goes on this morning on way to work. No gas cap issues, no low fuel issues and no other apparent symptoms in performance. No status warnings ('all systems OK'). Completed 30k service three weeks ago.
Scheduled to drive 1100 mile round trip Easter getaway early tomorrow morning. Ignore CEL until return? |

I could never do this. I would take another car if I couldn't get the car checked today at a dealership

Given CEL is emissions, and you haven't got a drive train warning, wouldn't worry. Consider charging the battery if there is a possibility of it being low, and acquiring an OBD2 codr reader ~30 from an auto store to view the code. It will be able to turn off the CEL and if it doesn't return, no issue.
