Messages coming on when I start the engine
The engine hot/ac off light comes on when I start the engine cold. Also the relearn tire positions light comes one when I start it up. I just this past Thursday had an oil change and they had to replace about 4 or 5 sensors that had shorted out. Any ideas of what might cause this? Also, the oil life is dropping like a stone - oil was changed on Thursday and now it already says it is down to 96% oil life left and i haven't driven even 200 miles? I'm a young widow so I have no hubby to help me - any ideas?

Here is all they did last Wednesday:
(1) 30,000 mile service. Performed oil change, completed fuel induction service, replaced air filters. relearned ECM with updates.
(2) Cust states that the LF door lock is inop. Upon inspection found that the drivers door actuator shorted replaced and tested fine. Repair- 0.6; Diag- 0.3; 26 Gallon-0= 0.3
(3)Cust states that when backing up the vehicle hesitates. Upon inspection found that the drive slip yoke dry, lubricated slip yoke and tested fine
(4) Cust states that the check engine light is on upon inspection found Code PO451 stored in ECM found FTP Sensor shorted and voltage out of range replaced fuel tank pressure sensor and tested find. Repair- 1.1; Diag- 0.3; 26 Gallon- 0.8
That is basically it - does they help with these warnings I am getting today? I
I did take a ride round trip on Thursday for 120 miles (60, then was in appt. for 45 min. and left for the 2nd 60 miles home).
Only other thing I did was go to church (3 miles one way) once today. Is it ok to drive a few miles tonight and take it back to service at 7 am?

What model year vehicle do you have? I see that you got the 30,000 mile service so I would assume that you've got either a 2009 or a 2008. If this is true then you would be completely ok with taking the vehicle back in and having them check the vehicle and diagnose the issues that you are having. I hope that helps you. If you run into any issues please feel free to contact me.
