Description of the problem | Fuel door would not open by pressing the interior button or the emergency latch. Had to take it to the dealer who also could not open it and they removed the part until it could be fixed. I drove with the gas tank door open until the part was replaced. We discovered the issue while parked at a gas station. We could've been stranded. |
