DESCRIPTION:
At times it may be hard to open the fuel lid when operating the release button.
The root cause was found that due too tight tolerances, the actuator may stuck in the fuel box.
This may happen specifically when the humidity in the air is high, by that, the expanding of material may cause to high friction when operating.
Normally the need to replace the actuator is not necessary.
SERVICE:
Follow directions in attachment.
