Wow...this is too bad. I'm starting to question quality control with Lexus. This just shouldn't be. My 2020 RX has been perfect, and really starting to wonder about trading. I was reading on another forum where a person pushed the memory seat button in, and the whole piece fell out back in the dash. I know with new models things come up, but I surely hope they catch all of these issues right away. Good luck getting your gas door fixed, and hope you will enjoy your new ride !

Some of these pictures do look bad. Thanks for posting so I will know what to look for. That said, given issues with other vehicles I've researched, a misaligned gas door isn't as bad. As long as Lexus makes it right, of course.

I would be curious to know what the fix is. It looks as though the entire inside mount housing needs to move more inward 1/8" or so, so I am wondering if it simply needs to be tightened further down. It does not apear that part are defective as most vehicles don't appear to have this issue.

Same issue
I’ve had my 2023 RX 350h Luxury for a week and half and noticed the other day from the side mirror that the fuel door isn’t flush. It bothers me when I look in the side mirror. Played around with it and now it seems like it mostly sticks out on the bottom. Seems like something Lexus should correct.
Mine was manufactured in Feb 2023.

Make sure the cable wire for the cap is well inside before closing the door.
Also be gentle with this door especially the plastic peg to the right of the cap. Close the door easily. My F-150 hybrid has a similar setup and the plastic peg on those easily fall off or break. No peg no open on F-150. The RX peg seems to be much tighter than my F-150 so should be ok.
