If you push on the leading edge of the door that will pivot the back out. :thumbsup:Stoneage_Caddy said:question , i have a CTS at work for my demo car ....ive been opeing the fuel door with my plastic keychain ....there isnt some sort of relese thing that pops it open is there ? its a pain in the ass to get the fuel door open , cant belive they ddint put a notch or handle to get it open
I like the concept of the remote door release b/c then it could be set to pop at least part way open when you push the button, thus reducing confusion among the more "easily confused" cadillac drivers. J/K Stony!
As for the arguement that it wont stop somebody who wants to steal your gas, youre right. But in reality, NO, and I repeat, NO anti-theft device or lock is 100% effective at stopping theives. Their real purpose is to make the criminals job a little bit harder. If they figure out they have to carry a crow bar to get at our gas, while they can just open the tank on a minivan by hand, I guarantee you the vast majority wont waste their time with our car and will go after that van.
I used to have a car with a remote release on the tank and never had a problem with remembering to hit the button as I pulled into the gas station so I'd have no problem with Caddy adding one to make the freeloaders lives a bit more difficult.
