I know it is a problem needing a resolution so it is more than just an annoyance as it triggers the "check engine light" to come on . EVERY time I get gas now, the message pops up to check the fuel inlet valve. The first time this appeared, I jumped out of the car thinking I forgot to put on my gas cap. I opened the compartment door and I thought for sure that my son must have set it down somewhere when he pumped my gas for me. So I was a little surprised when I found out there is NO gas gap. That was over a year ago and I have to say, WHAT A BIG F**'g design mistake this idea was/IS. Such a poor unthought out design! Why would anyone think that a circle of rubber is a viable option to create a strong and lasting seal. A seal that is supposed to put a cap to a necessary CLOSED system. And then to be told that you have to purchase the door with the gasket. You cannot just replace the gasket seal. Which wcould be an easy fix.
Gaskets, seals, washers such as in our faucets are replaced inexpensively everyday.
