How can I reset the check fuel cap message on my Honda Accord?

The fuel cap message on my Accord has been on ever since I last filled up the tank. How can I get rid of the notification about my car’s fuel cap?

Often, the fuel cap message is triggered when your fuel cap isn’t closed properly—so try that first!
To reset the check fuel cap message on your
Honda Accord
:
  • Shut off the engine
  • Open the fuel door
  • Tighten the cap
  • Turn your car back on
If your check fuel cap message is still on, it may be due to a deeper issue that should be properly
diagnosed by a mechanic
. So, schedule an appointment ASAP.
If you need repairs, offset the cost by saving money on your car insurance with
Jerry
. The average Jerry user saves $879 a year.
Jerry contacts your insurance company to get the details of your current coverage so you don’t have to scale a mountain of forms. You get all the best prices and coverage with none of the legwork. And if you ever have any questions, Jerry’s agents are just a text away.

How far can a Honda CRV go on empty?
I’ve run out of gas three times in the past year, and while I blame myself, I can’t always afford to fill the tank because money is a bit thin. While I’m going to make a vested effort to fill the tank more often, I was just wondering how far I can go before I need to stop by the gas station. How far can a Honda CRV take me if it’s on empty?
