2020 Subaru Ascent 4dr SUV

turbocharged 260hp 2.4L H4 8-speed shiftable CVT AWD

12000 mi “Check engine” light had gone on. Found gas vapor ? in fuel line-attributed that to my not tightening gas cap two clicks at last fill up. (It can only be tightened one click.) The light had gone on in mid winter after very cold night. Went out as ambient temp rose during the day.
