This indicates that the vent valve or vent valve control circuit of the EVAP control system is no longer functioning properly. The EVAP system consists of components including (but not limited to) the gas cap, fuel lines, charcoal canister, purge valve, system pressure and flow sensors, electrical wiring and connectors, vacuum lines, the fuel tank, and fuel vapor hoses.
Check fuel cap cover ,

When I had this issue I just needed to pull my gas cap off, clean the seal on the cap, and put it back on. I had to do this a few times after getting the car from the dealership, maybe the gasket rubber was a little stiff and in need of working-in.
