Typical fuel system symptoms owners report

  • Some describe the check engine light turning on every time they refuel a capless gas tank, then clearing once the tank reaches roughly half full.
  • Others report a check engine light tied to fuel temperature codes that a dealer cleared, only for it to return after the next fill-up.
  • A separate cluster describes a misfire code triggering the check engine light along with the instrument panel going black and the odometer flashing.
