“Tighten Fuel Cap” / “Tighten Gas Cap” warning. Reasons and fixes

This EVAP is making me hate newer cars. I miss my old 2002 Honda.

My Mazda cx7 has been showing this for 8months now. All issues proves abortive

Software then? Dealer should take care of it.

Oh, I see. I would check if the battery still has enough juice. Then, there are two options - Evap or crack somewhere in the filler neck or tank. Other than that, it's a software problem and can be solved by a good mechanic with proper scanner tool.

I do have the same issue with my Mazda and I had my gas cap changed and the light disappeared but after I bought fuel, my engine light came back on .
