Where is the fuel tank switch located in a Buick car?

The fuel tank switch in a Buick car is located on the left side of the driver's seat. Pull the fuel filler door release lever upward to release the handle and open the fuel tank cap. The fuel tank is a container used in vehicles such as cars or airplanes to store fuel, and it is a specialized container in the hydraulic system for storing hydraulic oil. In addition to storing gasoline, the fuel tank can also dissipate heat and separate air bubbles from the oil. It can be divided into two types: open fuel tanks and closed fuel tanks. Buick is an automobile brand under General Motors, founded in Detroit, Michigan, USA. Its models include: Buick Apollo, Buick Skylark, Buick Excelle, Buick GL8, Buick LaCrosse, Buick Regal, Buick Royaum, Buick Excelle GT, etc.
Last time I drove my relative's old Buick, it took me forever to find the fuel door release. The design of these American cars is indeed quite unique—you have to look down near the driver's seat left side by the door, almost under the seat, where there's a small semicircular lever. Newer models with electronic switches are more convenient, as you can simply look for the fuel tank symbol button on the center console or below the steering wheel. A reminder for new owners: all Buick models require unlocking the vehicle before opening the fuel door, which differs from German cars. Some owners are used to holding the remote key's fuel button to open the tank, but with Buick, this method depends on the specific model year.
