Consumer Description

THE PROBLEM I AM HAVING IS WITH THE VEHICLES PERG FLOW SYSTEM. THE VEHICLE HAS A CHARCOAL CANISTER THAT FILTERS GAS VAPORS FROM THE GAS TANK. THIS CANISTER HAS BECOME CLOGGED SO ON FILL UP THE FUMES CAN NOT VENT PROPERLY AND FORCES AIR BACK UP THE FILLER NECK OF THE GAS TANK AND SPRAYS GAS ALL OVER. THIS IS NOT ONLY DANGEROUS TO MYSELF BUT ALSO DANGEROUS TO EVERY PERSON IN THE AREA. I FEEL THIS IS A DANGER TO EVERYONE AND NEEDS TO B ADDRESSED
