Some Buick Enclave owners report experiencing issues with the check engine light being illuminated, often indicating a problem with the vehicle's emission control system. Common causes for this issue include a faulty emissions system component, sensor, or catalytic converter. Many owners find that a leaking or loose gas cap can trigger the check engine light, leading to malfunctions in the Evaporative Emission Control System (EVAP). The gas cap is essential for maintaining pressure inside the fuel tank and preventing gas fumes from escaping. When the Check Emission System warning light illuminates, it typically signifies a fault with one of the system's components. It is advisable for owners to check the gas cap first for any leaks or sealing issues before moving on to more extensive diagnostics. Conducting a pressure test and inspecting the gas cap can be effective initial steps to resolve potential emission system problems.
