If U open the lever inside the car to open the door to open it wouldn't open. It happen two times with me. I have to drive it to the dealers to open it. I'm glad I just have enough fuel to get there. To me this is a nerve breaking. U can get stuck if you are far driving and U cannot open the door to put gas. Now I bring it to the dealer service again they say that the cable going to open is wear out or broke. It's a week now the cable is not coming yet. They open the door for my had tank but I cannot close it. Or else I'm cannot open it or I can get stuck somewhere if I have no gas.if I closed the door. 46$ to the cable and they said maybe 200$ or more to the labor. This is scary if U are driving far U trying to put gas U cannot open the dooor to get get gas U stuck. It's to expensive for the tow truck. U lucky if U are closed to a dealer. But U have to wait for the parts. Now I have to put a duck tape so nobody can closed it or if I put gas I cannot accidentally closed it or else I'm stuck with no gas. I'm just lucky that I have enough gas to the dealer when I bring the car to them.
