prety old issue...happens on most cars. did you have to replace it? usually its just not tight enough

Wife did this the other day. Took me a minute to figure out.

check! i know the cap's tight on mine cause i gassed her up yesterday and heard a click when i tightened the cap.

it was just loose, bumped it while drying but it really loosened it a lot when the shammy grabbed the plastic lanyard for the cap. i saw it happen was was just like "meh, not a big deal", sel yeah big deal for me
