It Certainly Could Have Been Worse
As it turns out, I caught a break from Honda dealer service. It's the first good experience I've had with them in three years.
They found me a new oil cap, cleaned the engine, and filled the crankcase back up with oil. $108. I didn't even have to pay the "evaluation fee."
Now there are no fumes inside my car and I don't feel like Ace Ventura when I'm driving.
I'm going to go back to "Fire" and
1. Get a refund on the oil change they fouled up.
2. Ask for a free oil change at a later date, instead of trying for cash reimbursement for the service costs. It's about a $20 delta, and I'm okay with losing that much if I can be done with it.
I'll make sure the cap is screwed on before I drive off this time, just in case.
