Anyone ever have an issue with the fuel door? I've had this issue where the fuel door pops open randomly when driving or will stay closed when I need to Open it.
I did...the door itself was pushed too close to the solenoid that holds it shut/open it up, causing it to bind up. I used a plastic trim removal prybar to gently push it back so that the gap was even all around the opening and it has worked perfectly for 3 years since.
cover is air tight and pain in the butt during colder months but works fine during warmer months. if the cover gets stuck closed, I usually hold the release button until open if quick push doesn't work.
All this Push Button stuff on cars these days can be a pain -- simple enough to open the door by hand, don';t see a need for it. Like my Driver Door Handle Button just quit working (will not lock or unlock).
