Honda Accord: How to Open Fuel Door

Whether you’re renting or just have purchased a Honda Accord, you might be confused the first time you want to fuel up the vehicle. I searched for a fuel door release button or lever inside the vehicle, only to find there wasn’t one. Here’s how to release the fuel door on the Honda Accord.

Newer models of the Accord have a capless fuel filler system. Use these steps to open the fuel door.

1. Ensure the vehicle doors are unlocked.
2. Exit the vehicle, then push on the right side of the fuel door. It will spring open.
   
3. There is no gas cap to open. Insert the pump and start fueling.
