Can the fuel tank cap of the Sagitar still be opened after the car is locked?
2 Answers
The fuel tank cap of the Sagitar cannot be opened after the car is locked. Here is more relevant information: 1. Reasons why it can be opened: If the fuel tank cap cannot be locked, it is usually caused by a damaged fuel tank cap motor. This issue can be resolved by replacing the fuel tank cap motor at a repair shop. 2. About the Sagitar: The Sagitar is a brand jointly established by Volkswagen of Germany and FAW in 2006. The first-generation Sagitar was an A-class sedan introduced by FAW-Volkswagen, synchronizing with Volkswagen's new model for the North American market. Adhering to the authentic German heritage, it combines German manufacturing craftsmanship and advanced technology. Starting with Bauhaus design, it integrates modern design with classic quality, achieving a perfect fusion of design and craftsmanship, creating a simple yet timeless masterpiece.
From my experience driving the Sagitar, the fuel tank cap usually can't be opened after locking the car. This design is anti-theft, preventing people from stealing fuel or pouring foreign objects. Last time I went to the supermarket and forgot to lock the car, I came back to find the fuel tank cap slightly open, which gave me a scare—fortunately, no fuel was stolen. Later, I specifically tested it: as soon as I pressed the remote lock, the fuel tank cap clicked shut securely. This gave me peace of mind, especially when parking in the city where fuel is expensive—it wouldn’t be worth it if it got stolen. I suggest you make it a habit to pull the cap to confirm after locking the car each time. If you find it won’t lock, there might be an issue with the internal motor or wiring, and it’s time for a check-up. Overall, it’s a thoughtful feature that saves hassle—no need to worry with normal use.
