It is very common to have issues with the release that works with the cars locking system. When you lock the car, the fuel door has a little lever that locks the door, and sometimes they catch and do not work properly. Try unlocking and locking the car a couple times. If that does not work, try using a credit card and apply some pressure to the door. Hope this helps, thank you.
