2004 Malibu - gas cap will not stay in place - warning ...


Sent to Car Experts August 18, 2006 10:20 p.m.

2004 Malibu - gas cap will not stay in place - warning message "check gas cap".
Tried replacing the cap with a locking gas cap - same problem. Although it sounds like it is engaging (clicking as rotated), can be removed without having to "unlock". Any suggestions on what the issue is and how to resolve?

Optional Information:
2004 Chevrolet malibu 6

Already Tried:
replacing cap, using a locking cap.
