So, my local shop was closed for a week and I needed an oil change, so i took it to the infiniti dealer. $63 later, they change the oil and replaced a recall part, from 2007, dealing with the climate control unit. He also told me that my rear pads were down to 15%.

I've owned the car for almost 2 years and put on 25k miles. I've done routine maintenance as i normally do and NEVER went to the dealer for an oil change before.

I start my car yesterday, the second time since my dealer visit (about 10k), and BAM!! CEL!

I haven't ran the code yet so before I went crazy I thought of some possibilities. My car just hit 75k, could the CEL be on for the 75k maintenance? could it be the breaks?

I just find it to be a huge coincidence that the first time ive ever been to the dealership with my car is the first time i ever see my CEL!
 
Have you checked your oil level?

Really hard to tell without reading the codes, but since this did happen after visiting the dealer ... it would probably be best and bring it back to them.

I'd take it back to them and explain to them that it happened right after getting your oil changed by them.
