check engine light
Has anyone seen this before. check engine light came up on only 50k miles! Is that because of B3 service coming up in a few days or something else??

It has nothing to do with the service. Please get hold of an OBDII scanner & read the codes the car is storing & post them. With the modern car we all need a scanner in the glove box. Saves a lot of guessing & expense.

Any suggestions on the brand or model?

I recently had a CEL, and AutoZone's reader could not read it.
