GasBuddy data show the national average price per gallon has risen to about $4.03, the highest level for this late in the year. Price spikes are especially evident in Michigan (~$4.39/gal) and parts of Ohio (~$4.29–$4.49), with data dating back to 2000; while not an all-time high, it marks the peak for this late calendar period and is linked to factors including the Iran conflict.

Although prices have stabilized for now, analysts warn that since the cost of oil accounts for more than half of what consumers pay for gasoline, drivers may not catch a break at the pump any time soon.
