Driving me bonkers.
if there is a code that says check the gas cap; post the code. Have never seen it on a 2014 chevy or older.

Dodge and ford have a light that comes on the dash...the related code that sets does not mean the gas cap is at fault....only the vehicle has seen a refueling event, performs a large leak test and the test has failed. putting a new gas cap on without testing is a shot in the dark.
