My CEL came on again. Did the shameful battery reset! [ I know ]
I'm wondering if there is a pattern here. I have not taken a long trip in my
car for about a year now. [ over an hour ]

Only short stop and go trips to the store.

A number of you have said here as well as other forums that these cars
need to hit the highway and breathe a little.

Is the extended short trip usage detrimental to the emissions systems and other things on these cars?
