You know, I never thought of trying to open it when the doors were locked. I just tried it and lo and behold, it is locked up tight!

Here's one for you though. I also tried unlocking the doors (from the driver's side) to see if it would unlock and it didn't! Weird! The passenger side door unlocked automatically as it should, but the filler door remained locked. Is there some trick to it? Every time I've gone to put fuel in it it has been unlocked - which is why I didn't even realize it automatically locked. Is there an emergency release or something?

The last thing I want to have happen is to pull into a station to fill up and find I can't get the filler door open!
