Avventura fuel flap issue

Hi, I've got a 2015 Fiat Avventura, diesel, with about 107k km on it. Recently, the fuel flap release stopped working. I get an error message, and it won't open or close. Some other car functions seem a bit off now. Could it be a defective linkage? Has anyone else had this issue?

Summary of the thread

A 2015 Fiat Avventura owner is experiencing an issue with the fuel flap release not working, accompanied by a generic error message and other minor car function disruptions. The problem might be due to a defective linkage or a faulty actuator, as suggested by another owner who faced a similar issue. The recommended solution is to have the vehicle inspected and repaired by a professional workshop.

Hey, I had something similar with my Avventura! Couldn't get the fuel filler open, which was a pain. Did the error message mention anything specific, or did it just flag a general fault?

The error code was pretty generic, nothing specific to the fuel flap. Did yours also affect other systems in the car?

Yeah, it did cause some weird electrical gremlins elsewhere. Honestly, I messed around with it for a bit, but in the end, I just took it to a workshop. Turned out to be a faulty actuator. Best to get it checked out properly.

Thanks for the info! I'll take it to a shop and see what they say. I was quoted around 210€ for the repair. Sounds like that's the best bet.
