Default Gas Cap Stuck, is there a way to bypass the pin?

Hello, well its almost 10 degrees Farh. here and my "gas-cap-door" is open, but the pin keeping it closed is frozen stuck inside (not sticking out), is there a way to make that pin come out? I've pressed the gas cap button inside the car, but the pin keeping the "gas-cap-door" closed is stuck inside.....?......

any input can help....thanks.....

Hi there
Try the release located in the left trunk area. It is a manual release so it should work for you.
