Asuuming that you have a 2000 or 2001 model, there is a problem with these
caps...I was informed after I picked up my 2001 that you must make sure the gas
cap clicks at least 4 times when tightening it....If it doesnt, you will get a
chk eng light. Pretty annoying when you go to a full serv gas station... I
would stick with the stock one..Seems the Dodge engineering team screwed up
again..
