2004 Chevy Malibu 6 cyl

A few week ago the message "Check Gas Cap" popped up on my info center. Since than I've purchased two new gas caps, neither got rid of the messgae. My check engine light has also come on. Where can I get the correct gas cap to fix this issue?

Your problem isn't necessarily a bad gas cap. They just tell you to check it because it's a common cause of that code. A leak anywhere in the system will set that code though and it will take a smoke test to find it.
