Usually, if bad fuel/water in fuel you will have other symptoms than just 02 codes. running rough,stalling,bucking, hard starting etc.. but that is usually with a high content of water in the fuel, I'm not saying that some water or bad fuel couldn't cause a bad 02 cuz it could. But, if thats the only problem you have than pursuing any reimbursement will be a waste of your time. Put some dry gas in it or some octane booster, clear code and see if it comes back.

as for wawa fuel, I wouldn't run it. see below:

A couple local wawas by me have had some issues w/water in the fuel.
43 cases @ the lacey wawa, I know this cuz my buddy filled up there and was stranded 30 min. later. Had to drop tank empty fuel out, flush lines and put fresh gas in.

I'm sure that the wawas in the surrounding 30-40 miles get fuel from the same batch/tankers etc..

There was also a big thing at the Costco in Manahawkin. My friend Dan that works @ Causeway Honda had 27 cars come in with water in fuel. after testing found 12% water content. He was actually on the News about this.
Costco admitted it, and is reimbursing there customers + a $100 gift card.
FYI: the hondas all got:
drain, flush, filters, & 4 NEW INJECTORS...bills were over $2000 each..lol
