On a lot of cars you'll get an indicator light if your gas cap isn't screwed on tight enough. I'd check your gas cap, and if it doesn't come back it's probably no big deal. If it does come back though, it means gas is evaporating OUT of the fuel system (leaking out of the car and into the atmosphere). If it comes back, just take it to the dealer
