Bulletin Summary
TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN: FUEL FILLER DOOR HOUSING/ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY REPLACEMENT - This bulletin provides the procedure to replace the fuel filler door housing and actuator assembly on some 2021-2022MY K5 (DL3a) vehicles produced from March 24, 2020 through August 11, 2021 which may have fuel doors that exhibit an inability to open/close or intermittent lock/unlock concerns due to trapped moisture in the fuel door actuator. During normal operation, moisture may become trapped in the affected vehicle’s fuel filler door housing. Trapped moisture/water may enter the fuel door actuator, preventing the actuator operating normally. The new fuel door housing replacement part features a drainage port hole in the actuator casing to release any moisture that may collect in the fuel door housing.
About Technical Service Bulletins
A Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) is a document issued by a vehicle manufacturer to its dealers, describing a known issue with a specific vehicle or set of vehicles and the recommended procedure to fix it. Unlike recalls, TSBs are not mandatory and are typically only performed if an owner reports the related issue. However, TSBs can be an indicator of common problems with a vehicle.
