@sbergman27 No it doesn't - mine's a 2010 Prius and everyone I else I know who has one says they have the same problem and yet the dealers deny there is an issue. The only way to get it to fill is to rotate the filler nozzle 180 degrees so it is upside down. So next time you see a Prius driver doing this at the gas station you'll know why.

@btbonline As of 2010, the Prius has a real gas tank instead of that awful bladder thing. I suspect that probably helps.

[sbergman27]

Toyota certainly has a low opinion of the intelligence Prius owners.

@cob32187 Some manufacturers differ; on Ford/Chrysler/GM's, they don't have a remote gas door opener, and on many Fords, they have no gas cap (they use a valve that opens when you insert the nozzle for a gas pump in).

Are people really this stupid that they need a video on how to do this? If you need instructions on this, you do not need to be behind the wheel of any moving vehicle.
