Consumer Description

MY 2008 DODGE AVENGER R/T AT 52,000 MILES DEVELOPED A SERIOUS SPLASH BACK WHEN PUMPING GAS. IT DOESN'T MATTER IF THE FLOW IS VERY FAST OR VERY SLOW. IT WAS SO BAD THE FIRST TWO TIMES WHEN IT HAPPENED THAT GASOLINE SPLASHED ALL OVER THE LEFT REAR VERY HOT WHEEL AND ROTOR OF MY CAR AS I HAD JUST GOTTEN OFF THE HIGHWAY. I AM AFRAID THAT THIS WILL BECOME A MORE SERIOUS PROBLEM AND POSSIBLY A FIRE IF NOT CORRECTED. HAVE HEARD THAT IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH SOME 2008-2009 MODEL AVENGERS AND AS I HAVE TO GET IT TO THE DEALER AND SOON, SHOULD BE CHECKED FOR PERHAPS A VENDOR ISSUE. THANK YOU KINDLY. *TR
