Gas fill lid cannot lock?
Anyone notice that the gas fill lid does not lock, or do I have a specific issue?
I am talking about when car is completely shut off, locking the doors with the remote. I expected the gas fill lid to lock as well....or am I missing something? |

If the 6th gen is like the 5th gen. You wont be able to stick a hose in it and take the fuel if thats your concern.
Atleast my attempt to drain the tank that way failed. |

Although I read somewhere on this forum that non-US models had locking fuel fill doors.

No, this was not my concern. Just generally think that this area should not be too easily accessible when the doors are locked / vehicle unattended.

Next time when I remove the liner from the trunk right side I will have a look if I can find a number of the magnetic switch.
