A Sticking Gas Pedal

A stuck gas pedal can cause a loss of power at low speeds and reduced acceleration on the highway. If this occurs frequently, it could be a sign that something is wrong with your car's fuel system, such as a leaking fuel filter or cracked fuel lines. If this occurs while driving, you must pull over immediately and address the problem before it worsens and puts other drivers at risk of an accident.

Your Gas Cap Is Sloppy

A loose gas cap can cause carbon monoxide to build up in the vehicle's exhaust system. This is due to the fact that carbon monoxide is produced when fuel burns and produces carbon dioxide (CO2). In your cabin, CO2 reacts with oxygen, causing headaches, nausea, and dizziness. A loose gas cap may also indicate other problems with your vehicle.
