on if the gas cap is not secured properly. Make sure

that the gas cap is tightened each time the vehicle is

refueled.

Loose Fuel Filler Cap Message

If the vehicle diagnostic system determines that the fuel

filler cap is loose, improperly installed, or damaged, the

word “gASCAP” will display in the odometer. If this

occurs, tighten the fuel filler cap until a “clicking” sound

is heard and press the TRIP ODOMETER button to turn

off the message. If the problem persists, the message will

appear the next time the vehicle is started.
A loose, improperly installed, or damaged fuel filler cap

may also turn on the MIL. Refer to “Onboard Diagnostic

System” in “Maintaining Your Vehicle” for further infor-

mation.
