Heavy Protection: Caps

It took me a while to figure out how to lock it. Not because of the design, I just had trouble getting it right. Once I got it it was very easy to use.

Pros
  • Tough Finish
Cons
  • Big and Chunky

This is a good gas cap, but it is 100% identical.

This is a nice gas cap but it is 100% identical to the regular caps for this car that can be found in auto parts stores. This did not fix my fuel cap indicator light.

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Empty

No use, replaced with another product.

This cover has been listed as fully working for a 2008 Chevy Cobalt. Immediately, the lid didn't latch properly, rendering it immediately unusable. Secondly, the cap will continue to detach slowly and slowly until it is completely unscrewed during transportation. So I went with an official GM part at the same price as this product.

Pros
  • Quality Construction
Cons
  • Legacy Model

Doesn't allow you to tie a cap! Not like in the picture!

Received it today, wanted to put it on and noticed a problem. This prevents you from connecting the tethered plastic ring that covered the previous cover. Then compared with the picture - not that. So you can no longer hang a cover on the three insides of the door when refueling. I have to put the cap somewhere and I hope you don't accidentally forget it. I'll fall back on the Stant cap if I need to replace it later.

Pros
  • Permanent Test Results
Cons
  • Negative Result Present

Great but only for a limited time

I bought this for my Cadillac STS in September 2016, just over a year ago. I liked the product, it was reliable and worked as it should. Until recently it was almost impossible to unlock! It's utter fear when you're empty and there are places to be. The warranty was 12 months and I was two weeks overdue just as it started. I'm considering reordering, but be careful as being locked in your gas tank is far from ideal. Just be careful past the year mark to be careful and don't let your tank get…

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Functionality

Shit! Don't waste your time or money.

I bought it because of the name, I thought it was quality. The first came up but didn't close. Behaved as it does, key ok, cap fits, screwed on and clicked as intended. But flip it the other way, and it appeared instantly! No matter how you played with it, played with the key, it wouldn't lock! They said it was most likely defective. Wrote to Revine and sent another, went in 3 days, but that's not to the point. Got the next one just like the previous one, right out of the box. THAT DOES NOT…

Pros
  • Brings joy
Cons
  • Compatibility
