Has nothing to do with it. This isn't a "low oil" warning. It's a service reminder. My car has it too. The mechanic has to follow steps to shut off the reminder. It'll automatically go right back on again when the odometer reads whatever the next number is for the next service reminder.
I got my oil change at Walmart and they didn't turn off the reminder. I tried following the instructions a few times and eventually just stopped bothering. I know when I need to change my oil and I know when it's time for another yearly maintenance visit. When the *warning* light goes on, I bring it to the dealer as soon as possible (within hours or - I bring the car home and don't drive it again until I'm driving it to the dealer). |

Of Course. But it is just a small PART of a service.

Reset Service Reminder
Google it. I'm sure if you ask google someone will have a "how to" reset the service reminder notice.

Auto Zone will do it. Unless you want the Mini Dealer to do the Service.

That means it’s time to get a new car.

my father-in-law would have just put a strip of black electrical tape over it and been happy that he didn't have to look at it any more

Go back to where you had the service and have them reset it. Pretty simple.
