anyone else think the gas door release is too close to VDC?
The other day I was intending to hit the VDC button when I pressed the gas door button. Just thought this was something to laugh at. I guess it just takes getting used to.

yeah i always have to look down to make sure i hit the right one. Its hard to see too behind the steering wheel kinda. They need to put it on the steering wheel but then again that could cause problems too.

not really. One is on top, one is on the bottom. I hope you look at things before you press it.

There was a minor change in that area with the '07s. I think it is easier to see now.

If you don't feel like lookin down there, the gas tank button is indented into the plastic and the VDC is level with the plastic

Better be careful then. Afterall, the gas pedal is very close to the brake pedal as well...

Who cares? When you getting gas your car should be off anyway, just hit both and only the door will open. My $.02

Simple motor skills (Brain to Hand communication) should solve this problem for ever, in say ................2 MINUTES !!!!!

An example of poor motor skills is......eating pie and stabbing yourself in the forehead with the fork
