Description of the problem | I arrived at the gas station to fill up and when i attempted to open the gas cap shield, the mechanism jammed and i had to pry it open. Then a few moments later, when i attempted to lock the door from the outside, the entire locking mechanism on the driver's side fell inside the interior of the car door. I have contacted the dealer and was told to bring it in. However, until i do there is no way to lock the door! *nm |
