    if you mean how it comes out while turning and such, mine did it when i got my car. fix is to drill the two body rivits on the gas door, take it out, and replace it with a junkyard good one. the spring breaks in there and i dont have a quick fix for it other than replace it

    the rivits are right on the inner lip of the gas door hole. open your gas door, look at the left side lip of the body, you will see two rivits. thats all that holds it on.
