Shift into park (P) or neutral (N).

Apply the parking brake.

Fully open the fuel filler door.

Check the fuel tank filler valve for any debris that may be restricting its movement.

Remove any debris from the fuel tank filler valve.

Fully insert a fuel pump nozzle or the fuel filler funnel provided with your vehicle into the fuel filler pipe. See Locating the Fuel Filler Funnel. This action should dislodge any debris that may be preventing the fuel tank filler valve from fully closing.
