That particular warning is pretty much only a timer. There's a clear plastic box under your dash that counts milage, and after a certain amount goes by, it pops up a little flag and the light comes on.
It's basically a reminder for the driver to go to the dealership and have them check things. Afterwards, the dealer pops in a new little clear box, and the countdown starts again.
That's IIRC. AFAIK it's not like a 'check engine' light, it's just a 'you should go to the dealership and check things, because it's been a while' light. *L*
Lots of folks ignore it, or pull the bulb out to make it go away.
HTH!
