three traction related caution lights were on. Upon pulling codes it pointed to a problem with the charcoal canister for gas fumes from the tank. A mechanic told me it was normally a worn out seal on the gas cap and suggested buying a new gas cap and cleaning the mouth of the fuel filler area that the cap screws into. Update: I only cleaned the seal and it has been fine for a few months.
