How do I open the gas tank on a Honda Fit 2010?

To fuel up my personal car, I just press on the fuel door to open it. Right now I am driving my aunt’s old Fit while visiting and I can’t figure out where the lever is to open her fuel door and refill the tank. How do I open the gas tank on a Honda Fit 2010?

To open the gas tank on a
Honda Fit
2010, look under the left side of the dashboard on the driver’s side for a switch.
If you reach down with your left hand near the driver’s side door, you’ll feel a few switches with notches. The one you need to toggle has a gas tank icon on it. Pull it and your exterior fuel door will pop open.
Once you’re done fueling up, simply screw on the gas cap and press the fuel door closed until it’s securely latched.
The trend with newer cars is to avoid interior levers and switches. Instead—as you described—you simply press and release on the exterior fuel door to access the gas tank.
Your aunt’s 2010 Honda Fit needs regular unleaded gasoline. Putting the
wrong fuel in the car
can lead to engine troubles down the line. If you want to go above and beyond, take it through a car wash before you give it back!
