Fuel Door Locked?
OK, for those who have the Fit in Canada, I need this question answered, please...
Is the fuel door locked? Can anyone from the outside just pop it open? Thanks... |
You can open the fuel filler door from the outside. It is disappointing that they can't be locked. I guess we have to resort to the lockable cap.
|
yeah, take a look at the college hills honda accessories. you'll see the locking gas cap....
|
Pretty cheap insurance if you live in a rough neighborhood.
I don't think I've ever had anyone steal gas. I can't imagine stealing gas. This isn't Road Warrior. I'll be buying a locking gas cap just in case. |

I haven't gotten my car yet, so can't tell you, but I thought it locked with the door locks????
|
Well, it's really weird that the USA Fit doesn't have that feature, mine is from Mexico and it does have it
|
The gas cap is 100% open for business.
|
Can anyone take a pic of what the lock on the fuel cover looks like, and may be the release mechanism within the car?
Is it just a simple cable release? thanks |

I saw the locking gas cap option on collegehills, but I think it sucks having to carry another key just to open the gas cap! |
Perhaps the remote-release door on the Jazz is part of the security system of the Sport, and thus not available on the Base. Anybody have a NADM Sport to verify that the door is lockable?
|
I saw the car a few days ago at a show here locally and that was actually one of the things I looked at. The door has no lock, neither does the cap so its completely open to whomever wants to gain access to it. The only viable option is a lockable cap which isnt that big of a pain, just attach the key to your car's keyring.

I have the LX |
can anyone confirm on the Sport model?

The Sport I looked at this morning didn't seem to have anything to lock the gas door. As if, the Civic had this feature in the 1980s!!!!
|
Doesn't every new Honda lock? I don't know, maybe the Element doesn't if I remember correctly.

I guess the drivers side pocket would be a great place to put the fuel cap lock key if you dont want to keep it with your other keys.
