25 XLT hybrid. Has anyone had issues with their fuel door randomly trying to open? I’ll get a notification that there is a refueling issue and after a few minutes the fuel door will open. I never hit the button

I would first ensure that the manual release in the left rear wheel well is not being snagged by something and is secured. This is not a known problem AFAIK.

They have a locking fuel door? That's my next upgrade item!
I could be wrong but I believe because they are hybrid that the system has to do some sort of pressure release before allowing you to refuel. With my EB I feel like it doesn't want to pop open from time to time, always does tho. Usually have to press it again. Maybe I'm not hitting it hard enough 🤷‍♂️
