How to Open the Fuel Tank Cap on a Buick Verano?
2 Answers
Buick Verano's door lock and fuel tank lock are integrated. First, press the brake pedal of the Buick Verano to prevent the car from rolling, and prepare to power up the entire vehicle. Press the one-touch start button located at the lower right corner of the dashboard. Once pressed, the vehicle's electronic systems will be powered on. When the dashboard lights up, it indicates that the entire vehicle is powered on. The fuel tank lock switch is on the fuel tank cap, marked with a fuel tank symbol. Some models may have an indicator light or the switch located directly inside the cabin. With the vehicle powered on, simply press the fuel tank lock, and the fuel tank cap will automatically pop open. Remember to close the fuel tank cap promptly after refueling.
As a longtime owner of the Buick Verano, here's how I open the fuel tank cap every time I refuel: After getting in the car and settling into the driver's seat, look at the area near your left foot on the driver's side. There's a small plastic lever close to the door frame. Gently pull it, and you'll hear a popping sound—the cap will open. It's that simple! If there's no response, the car might still be locked; try pressing the unlock button on the remote key. Always turn off the engine before refueling to prevent accidents. In cold weather, the cap might stick—just give it a gentle tap to loosen it. Regularly check the lever and cap to avoid dirt buildup and prolong their lifespan. If the lever won't budge, the internal cable might be worn—don't force it and risk damaging the car; take it to a professional for repair. Remember, the design is thoughtful and operation is effortless.
