There’s always a learning curve in adapting to a new car. To open your 2014 Subaru Forester’s gas tank, first locate your fuel door lever on the driver’s side floor.
If you’re sitting in the driver’s seat, you’ll find the fuel door lever on the left-hand side low down on the floor. When you pull up on it, your fuel door will pop open at the back of your car. From there, go manually unscrew the gas cap, and you’re ready to refuel your Forester!
Once the tank is full, twist the cap until it clicks back into place. If you’re driving a fifth-generation Forester or newer (2018 onward), rather than pull a floor lever, you just have to push on the fuel door and it will pop open.
