Code 82?

[2FR35H]

Sonic just flashed a code 82 any ideas as to what this means? Owners manual just says take it to a dealer but I don't want to go to the dealer without knowing something.. it would be a great way to screw me over by not knowing something...

"Code 82 is change oil soon.

Turn your car on, but leave it in park.
Push the menu button until you see oil life in your DIC.
Push and hold the reset button.
Have a good day."

Appreciate it.. weird as I always get my oil changed every 3k miles and I just got it changed 2 weeks ago and I drove only 300 miles at the most since then

Likely just forgot to reset the oil life meter. Not as uncommon as you'd think.
