First of all, thank you for replying..... I am doing that and made sure I did that the last gas fill....because I didn't want this to happen again..... Do you think it might be a defective gas cap? Or a very, very sensitive sensor?

If there is a problem it is probably a bad cap. They shouldn't be expensive to replace -- get in touch with one of the forum sponsoring dealers and they can get you a good price if you do need to replace it.

Thanks for the reply....and heck....it's definitely still under warranty, so I shouldn't have to pay for a new gas cap, no matter how cheap it is, right?
