Hi 

Ive noticed the fuel door on my 2015 mk3.5 focus is not fitting as it should. It is not sitting flush with the bodywork. Is there any way to adjust the door?

    You've still got warranty so I'd take it back to Ford and have a moan!

    They're saying not covered after first year. Car is now 15 month old.

    I bought it about 4 weeks ago, but didn't notice. Is there a way to adjust?

    The one on my RS was far worse practically flat instead of curved to follow the body shape. Took it back to my dealer body shop but they were useless after 4 weeks getting nowhere I spoke to the regional manager he took one off a demonstrator and swapped them

    From what I've read this is a fairly common problem if you bought from a dealer I'd go back and speak to the sales manager try get him to do it on a good will basis

    If not try a scap yard if you can get a colour match

    Evidently the door just slides off but might break the retaining lugs so be careful
