Done a search but cant find anything about this. I can pull the lever inside the car to open the filler cap but it wont close unless i have another person to pull the lever and I push the flap closed. Been ok for a year or so but just started this problem now. It will be fixed under warranty, for sure, but just wondering if this is a common problem.

Spring mechanism could have got a bit grimy and stuck?

Your the first to report it on here I think so no, not a common problem. Just unlucky I suppose!
