I am currently leasing a 2004 honda civic. not sure if the dealership will charge me money to fix this, but it happened just tonight, my gas tank door did not open when i pushed the latch downwards which normally opens the gas tank door. the gas tank door has no key entry so when i had a near empty tank today i was in big trouble. i opened up my trunk to access the gas tank door cable which was obviously having problems since i had to detach it to open the gas tank door. i have put gas in my car now, but its obvious the cable cord which leads from the latch to the gas tank door is not working. who pays for this, me or the dealership? i see no way that i or anyone else could have access to the cable to damage it. what do you think?

Wow, do you get the feeling no one is actually *reading* your question?! LOL!! Sorry for your problem.
OK, did you lease this car new or used (I assume used)? What are the terms of your lease agreement? Warranty coverage? Insurance? Is this the first time you filled the gas tank? All these questions figure into the answer. If you just drove this off the lot and this is your first fill-up, you may have a shot at getting the dealership to cover it. Otherwise, you may have to suck it up and pay for it yourself, sorry. But there is definitely no harm in asking, first. They can only say no. Good luck!
