Q: windows trunk gas cap

asked by on July 25, 2016

The windows on my EOS won’t roll up or down except on the driver’s side of my car. My trunk and gas cap won’t pop open either. What could be causing these problems? I don’t want to bring my car to the dealership. Can you please help me fix my minor car troubles?
