Gas Nozzle...

Two days ago when I finished pumping gas at the gas station I could not put the nozzle back in completely. It wont even go in all the way, or turn right. So I pushed it in a little temporarily. I still can't eve put it back in and the computer reminds me that it is not in properly. Anyone have this problem?
Also, the 'check engine' light came on yesterday. I dont see why I got this car last Wednesday!

The check engine light comes on when your gas cap isn't tightened completly like you mentioned has happened to you.

Superboy - The "check engine" light is on because your gas cap is loose, as you stated. The cap only goes on a certain way when the silver tabs line up with the slots - then it's a quarter turn to tighten. It is not one that screws on with multiple threads and then clicks when tight. If it got bent or something the dealer will fix it and clear the check engine light. Good luck!!
