Service Engine Soon Light..... :(

Blue Baby · 07-07-2010, 06:05 PM

I had this problem with my 09 Touring. The plastic piece that holds the cap to the car got caught under my cap and caused a crease in the outside sealer ring. My check engine light would come on all the time. The light would shut off after a drive cycle, or after I disconnected the battery to erase the code. My cap would also work its was loose on its own. If it keeps happening make the dealer replace the cap. There is nothing worse driving a new car with the engine light on over a stupid gas cap.

I can see that happening with plastic thing, but I honestly don't remember that happening to me, but who knows....I'm not totally stupid that I don't know how to put a gas cap on securely....LOL.....I honestly believe it's a defective cap! But I'm not a mechanic.....LOL.....I'll be sure to let y'all know what they say this time.
