NHTSA Complaint #10377978 — 2008 DODGE NITRO

EACH TIME I FILL UP MY 08' DODGE NITRO SXT IT SPEWS GAS BACK OUT ONTO ME AND MY TRUCK SINCE I PURCHASED IT IN NOVEMBER OF 2010 FROM CARMAX. I DO NOT TOP IT OFF, IT'S SIMPLY FROM THE FIRST FILL UP USING THE AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF. CARMAX SAYS THEY CAN'T FIND A PROBLEM AND THEY'RE LOOKING FOR IT...I KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS, JUST FIX IT! THEY REPLACED THE EVAPORATOR CANISTER AND THAT DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. NOW THEY'RE LOOKING INTO REPLACING THE GAS TANK DUE MY RESEARCH SINCE THEY COULD NOT FIND ON THEIR OWN, EVEN AFTER CONSULTING THE LOCAL DODGE DEALERSHIP ASKING IF THEY'VE COME ACROSS THE PROBLEM. THERE IS A DEFECT IN THE VALVE OF THE GAS TANK THAT IS THERE TO PREVENT AN EXPLOSION IN THE EVENT OF A ROLLOVER ACCIDENT. THEREFORE, THE DEFECT IN THE VALVE IS CAUSING THE GAS TO SPEW OUT ON PEOPLE, THEIR VEHICLES AND ALL OVER THE GROUND. CHRYSLER IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT THEY'RE NOT DOING A RECALL. WHY ISN'T THIS ISSUE BEING BROUGHT TO THE NATION'S ATTENTION, THIS IS A HUGE HEALTH AND SAFETY HAZARD TO ME AND THE ENVIRONMENT??!!?? *TR
