“I have a 2007 Acura TL type s..a couple of month after purchasing the vehicle while driving to work one day my fuel system light came on stating that I need to check my gas cap..so I pulled over and make sure that my gas cap is tight which it was..so I shut off the vehicle and restarted it again. The light was still on.. So I decide to take the car to the dealer each time I take it there .. …”
NHTSA complaint #10231085, filed 2008-06, 20,000 miles“The warning light tighten gas cap comes one every so often with no understanding of why.

Acura wants $500 to make this light go away. But on the internet threads I have read that some people have had their cars repaired to only have the warning light come back on. …”
NHTSA complaint #10523295, filed 2013-07, 55,000 miles“Since I purchased my vehicle I have been back and forth to the dealer at least a half dozen times for the tighten fuel cap light. Each time I was told nothing was wrong. I switched dealerships and they finally replaced the fuel cap, neck and another part that I cannot recall now. That fixed the problem for a short time, now I have another diagnostic code, 2 actually, p0171 and p0174. The message center for the fuel cap and these codes all said it is related to my emission system. I see one other person filed a complaint on here relative to the gas cap light coming on. …”
