Continual CELs?

My 2020 C2S has had probably 6-7 check engine lights over the last couple of years. Anyone else experience this? Haven't had more than one or two random CELs in prior Porsches. For the first few CELs, I took the car into the dealer and service's response was invariably something like "we're not sure what caused it, maybe a fuel cap not tight enough or XYZ, but nothing is wrong" and it gets reset. (I never top off and always tighten the fuel cap until it clicks.) Any thoughts as to what might be causing this? By the way (and 100% unrelated) just ordered a set of Porsche spec Pilot Sport 4S! They're out there with a 6-8 wk backorder.

Not normal at all. Get this addressed before the car gets out of warranty.

This is ABSOLUTELY NOT normal. I've had mine (2020 C2S) for almost two years (July) and I have NEVER had a CEL. As detansinn said above, get it checked thoroughly while still in warranty. Use a different dealership or independent if necessary. Good luck.

Escalate this issue with service and get Porsche involved if needed. That is absolutely not normal.
I suspect that the tech's plan is to simply reset the code and wait for something to break so they can replace it under warranty. Multiple CELs and repeated service appointments for this issue without resolution starts sounding like a potential Lemon case.
