This happened to me on Wednesday made an appointment at my dealer for Thursday and had the car back by the end of the day with a new charge door all covered by warranty.

Here's the part from that thread, for $13 I just ordered one for myself so I have a backup.

that part didn't solve my problem, unfortunately. On my end, as like the pictures above, it appears that there is a 'receiving' piece that fell into the car. The piece that I ordered from the link above seems to be the 'male' end of the thing, but what's missing is a female part - something that will accept the male piece and lock it in. This is beginning to sound like a single's ad

interesting! I don't even know what I am looking at! Is the part you listed the female port? looks kinda big - when mine fell out into the car, it didn't sound like a big clunk, more like a dime falling inside. If i knew how to get in there, I bet i'd find it in there!

What was the resolution for your charge port door latch? Mine just fell into the fender yesterday, but I was able to retrieve it from the felt liner at the bottom of the fender.
