    Gas cap cover release cable - quit working. Had to remove cable at the gas cap cover by way of the trunk. Now the cover stays open and won't shut. Honda dealership wants $225.00 to fix. There should be a secondary way to open and close the cover that bypasses the cable. The cable should not be the only way to open and close the cover for the gas cap. *tr
