the coolant being low probably did not turn on the light,unless it was really low and the car overheated. im gonna assume that this is a 4 cylinder car since you said its a base model. most of the time ive seen a cam sensor code it turns out to need a crank sensor instead sso it might have the very same code stored in it as before.

Doubtful leaving the cap off tripped a check engine light. That could be due to any one or more of literally hundreds of things. You need to get a code reader on the car, Autozone will do it for free, that will give you an idea of what the problem could be. It may be as simple as a loose gas cap.

Took it back to shop that did work. They checked it and determined was faulty part. Hopefully new one won't be.

I had 4 new tires put on my 2013 Hyundai Sonata (previous Hertz Rental Car) about 1 1/2 weeks ago. Yesterday & today I had all 4 TPM'S replaced. Why won't the TPM light stay "cleared?" I bought this car in early 2015 w/58K miles on it. I am at about 107K miles. Have not had any problems with it till now....but, it's ANNOYING. Most importantly, if there is a problem....I won't know it? Also, I have put a full size tire/rim in the trunk....could that make a difference? Should I put the temporary tire back in there?? 2 answers
I have also changed out the stock rims on it, however, didn't have any problems with those rims prior to having the tires put on last week. Not sure how to proceed from here.
