I just got a great deal on a Corolla and the car is treating me well so far. However, I’m at the gas station, and I have no idea how to open the gas tank. What do I need to do to open the gas tank on a 2017 Toyota Corolla?

  • Open the driver’s side door.
  • Look for a lever on the driver’s side floorboard near the door jamb.
  • The lever is marked with a gas tank graphic.
