ORIGINAL: ricerchik02

I think someone has been trying to cyphen my gas [>:]
Recentlylate at night I've beenhearing my car alarm chirp. It has a two stage sensor so that chirp is just a warning to whoever tapped the car. But hey, its usually about 3am when this happens and I don't wanna investigate.
Thenthe other day, my CEL comes on and I got the evap code. This is weird because I hadn't touched my gas cap at all the day before and there is no reason the cap should be loose. So I reset the cap and reset the battery and the light goes away. But my gas doesn't seem to be any lower than usual...
Has ur car ever had this happen out of nowhere? Or is someone really trying to steal my gas?
Something that "could" have happened, is that your gas cap wasnt all the way tight to begin with. Temperature changes, especially drastic ones, could have caused the cap to expand/shrink and "if" it was loose, then it could have generated that error. It could have also been loose and vibrated loose from bumps and so forth. Stranger things have happened.

Your alarm could have chirped for an animal, or a car driving by with too loud an exhaust...... I wont say that you are wrong, because with the idiots in this world, its highly possible. However, based on what you said, I'd think my theory is more likely.

*Edit*

Something else I thought of, right as I posted this, was that the rubber seal on your gas cap could simply be bad and needs replaced.
