Mine doesn't pop open all the way.. it just opens enough for me to get my fingers under it an open it all the way.

Can you even open it easily?

Mine doesn't pop open all of the way either. Perhaps it's designed that way.

I can't understand the problem. It opens and you get to put very expensive gas in your baby. So what if it doesn't open all the way. If it does, its going to feel like a GM, Ford, or something in that class.
