As you may have noticed, the gas cap is directly behind the driver's side rear sliding door. If the door was able to slide open with the gas cap open, the door would impact the gas cap cover. I am not an expert on this, but the gas cap cover is very close to the sliding door latch mechanism. Opening the gas cap cover mostly likely pulls a mechanical rod that locks the door latch closed. This will have no effect on the power lock mechanism.
