“Gas cover doesn't open after pulling lever from drivers seat. I've been to dealer and service manager says to push lever on hinge of cover. Had vehicle for 4 months now and have been pushing this thin metal back every time but at times it still will not open. Been to dealer 3 times now and he keeps telling me to push this thing back. Frustrated, I said that this is a terrible design, he said in return honda has same feature . I left.”
