The car will usually keep running, but continued driving risks secondary damage or an emissions failure. Book the repair.
On a CAN fault the fastest path is to check which modules are silent, then isolate them one at a time.
Start by reading every stored and pending code, not just this one. A single fault frequently sets three or four codes at once, and the first one in the freeze-frame data is usually the cause while the rest are consequences.
