If your green tab is hanging loose like that, you might want to clip it back into place, as seen in this photo.

I didn't even know where it was supposed to sit.
All this talk about parts, flux capacitors...
Thanks for that I'll clip it back

What trim level does the locking gas door come on? My XLT doesn't have that and I love to be able to somehow lock my fuel.

Locking gas doors are on Maverick hybrids because the fuel tank is pressurized.
Ford does sell a locking gas cap for your EcoBoost.

You know, ford should really make the tab a little bigger and emboss "FUEL DOOR RELEASE" on it. Would stop all the questions from confused owners.
But then all the mischievous A Holes out there would see it and be pulling it, popping the door open and who knows what else.... 🤷‍♂️

Good point - The hybrids have a locking gas door but they don't have a gas cap, locking or otherwise..

EcoBoost doesn't come with a traditional gas cap locking or otherwise.
Archasaurus wanted to secure that area.
I was replying to this post.

Therefore I offered a locking gas cap option, in post #35
