Isn't it supposed to unlock if in range of your smart key?

If its so easy to break, what's the use of it.

Personally I prefer a non-locking petrol access door or cap.
Rather have a few gallons of gas taken, than an expensive repair/paint job!

If I was certain that cover would stay closed, and still open when pushed, I'd
leave it broken. So if mine breaks I'll know the answer.
