I have had this happen many times, and the culprit is usually a fuel cap that has not been put on correctly. Check your fuel cap, remove it, and re-install correctly. It will take a while for the light to go off again (sometimes up to half a tank of gas), but it should be out by the time you need to fill up again. I have also had one instance where I filled up at a non-chain gas station, and my light went on. It stayed on until I ran another complete tank through, and the only answer I have is that it was crappy gas. I don't know much about cars, but I understand that the fuel system is pressurized, and when your cap isn't on correctly, your car's computer recognizes that there is something wrong with the system pressure, which turns on the light. Hope this helps
