Check engine light came on. Mechanic had off and on for 3 weeks, unable to find cause. Dmv issued wavier on 4/9/2015 so that we could get renewal tags. Took to another mechanic who was recommended by first one. They replaced r&r canister purge solenoid and the wiring harness on 6/22/2015. The light stayed off for a couple of days. We returned to mechanic. Picked up on 6/29/2015, light stayed off until 7/2/2015. We are supposed to return to mechanic on Monday due to this being holiday weekend.
