2016 Toyota Highlander Check Engine Light Reset

The check engine light reset on a 2016 Toyota Highlander should be handled with care. While some drivers clear the code with an inexpensive scanner, resetting without resolving the underlying issue can mask problems that reduce fuel economy, accelerate wear, and risk emissions failures. At Larry H. Miller American Toyota Albuquerque we combine precise diagnostics with clear communication: our technicians identify the root cause using Toyota-approved tools, explain repair options, and show why OEM parts and factory-calibrated procedures protect your Highlander’s performance. Choosing dealership service ensures warranty integrity—any covered repair must be performed at a certified location—and typically delivers better long-term savings through correct repairs and genuine parts. We also offer service financing to help you address repairs now and pay over time. Before you reset, let our team run a complete diagnostic so the light stays off for all the right reasons. You can easily schedule service online and check available service specials to reduce out-of-pocket costs.
