Been there, cleared that. If it's a sensor on the edge of failure, it can go a while but will come back on. I carried my samsung mini tablet and my Bluetooth OBDII reader to clear the light every other day until I could fix the O2 sensor.

My money says it comes back. Now, a loose gas cap that throws a code but you tighten it proper next time, that CEL will not return.
