Whats up guys, I was on the parkway last night on a 40 mph roll ready to smoke a camaro,as I try to step on it, my check engine light turns on that said Increased emission! what does this exaclty mean? how does this happen? I need some input before I take to the dealership! I just got the damn car like 3 weeks ago, and does warranty cover this?

depends on what year it is and how many miles it has, for the warranty that is. However 3 weeks ago, you should have warranty from the selling dealership unless you bought it from a private party. .. Also doesn't necessarily has to be something big. You can have any place pull up the trouble codes with an obd scanner and tell us what they are. We can only help you then. GL
