Hello Waed. I can possibly help you with your English.

yes, 'for reasons' means the same as 'for some reasons'. However, since English speakers usually try to say everything as quickly as possible and since in this situation, 'some', isn't a word that adds more meaning as far as most people are concerned, it is okay to omit 'some'. Also, 'reasons' is plural, so it already informs you that there may be more than one reason.

As an American, we wouldn't use the word America when we were talking about the price of gas (gasoline) where we live. If we heard you including that word when you were speaking to us, then most would conclude that you don't live in America and obviously aren't native and probably aren't concerned about sounding natural. You simply want some information about a price. It's okay to say it though, but you can understand how your speech gives others information about yourself.
