MY2025 Heritage 2.3L with ~2500 miles. Anyone gotten this one before? Seeing the check engine light on my dash and the app notified me:

Service Engine Soon Warning
February 3, 21:39
What Is Happening?
Your service engine soon alert is on because an issue has been detected that can prevent your engine from starting. This can be caused by a low fuel level or if the vehicle is parked on a steep incline with a low fuel level.
What Should I Do?
Verify the fuel level is not low and add fuel if needed. If the fuel level is not low and if your vehicle still will not start, please contact Roadside Assistance immediately away to have your vehicle towed to your preferred dealership.
My fuel is not low, and it's not having any trouble starting, just drove it around a bunch. I'm gonna call the dealer, just curious if anyone has seen this before.

By chance do you have the low pressure fuel pump recall? Not sure if it applies to 2025s.

Don't think so, app says "0 active recalls" and I've had it at the dealer for the instrument panel recall a few weeks ago.

Have you checked to see if it's throwing any codes? If you don't have a scan tool you can pick up a simple hand held scanner at most auto parts store for under $100.

These are just generic messages, very often which are wrong or misleading at best. Without knowing the codes, it's impossible to say what it could be.

Ok, thanks. The message seems pretty specific compared to the ones I saw when Googling, so wasn't sure.

Well I was sick for a day and didn't drive, went out today and the check engine light is off. Only thing I can think is maybe something got weird when I got a (touchless) car wash. It's been brutally cold here but I finally had to get the salt off, maybe something froze? TBD I guess...

Do you have a keyless entry?

Trying to think where the water egress could be.

Maybe the underspray, but I'm skeptical of this anyway. It was mid-20s when I got the car wash, it wasn't that cold.
