I know it is some stupid easy fix I just forgot how since it's been a while since I read it.

Taking it to the dealer for that is a waste of time and money.
1. sit in car in drivers side.
2. Take your RIGHT hand and place it palm side up on the RIGHT side of the under dash. Under the steering wheel where the plastic starts to the right of the streering column.
3. Move your RIGHT hand down towards the end of the plastic thats next to the steering column till you can curl your fingers under the end of the plastic.
4. With your fingers curled upwards around the plastic (as if you were gonna rip it downwards) feel from left to right for a small rectangular box wich will have a small square plastic button in the middle.
5. Press and hold this button. While you hold the button the maint req light will flash and stay on and shortly shut off and viola! its reset.

The way the button is placed the button is actually facing away from the driver and not towards you so when you push the button your finger will be curling towards you.

Remember guys the ignition has to be in the ON position.

I had to lay down in the floor area in front of the drivers seat to find mine the first time. Just look around, I think it was a grey button.
