If someone could reply with an easy way to determine country of origin, it might be helpful to those wishing to participate in this exciting poll.

I just confirmed mine will open while in motion.... Forward or Reverse for that matter... Maybe I got the NASCAR edition....;)

Wayne, is your TCH US built?

The easiest way I know is to look at the sticker on the driver's door jam. It lists the country of origin, month/year of manufacture, and other info.

I wonder if it has anything to do with trim levels/option packages. I was going to post this question in the other thred but since there's a poll now.

I have an 09TCH, built in Kentucky. I have the heated leather seats/mirror, Nav, sunroof, auto dimming mirror with compass. My fuel door will not open when moving.

09 TCH non-NAV, made in Kentucky. Door does NOT open when the button is pressed at 40MPH in the rain at night while fumbling around in the dark.

Yes, Kentucky made with a build month of 01/08. I am going to take a look at the wiring diagrams this weekend to see if a loose / missing wire connection could be causing mine to defeat the interlock it appears other have on their TCH....

Tested my '07 TCH this afternoon coming home from work:

Test speeds: 5 MPH increments from 60 down to 0. (Can't understand why everyone on I-95 was honking at me while I was doing test. :omg: )

The fuel door would NOT open while car was moving.

Car: Japan 2007, built ~~ Jun 2006. Options: Almost everything (NAV, Sun, Leather, etc.)

This may be a stupid question but, why would anyone try and open the fuel door while the car is in motion??:confused: I have not tried to open it while in motion.........and have no plans to attempt it in the future. :lightbulb
