Consumer Description

EVERYTIME I GO TO FILL UP MY GASOLINE TANK OF THE 2008 DODGE NITRO I JUST PURCHASED IN DEC 2010 IT OVERFLOWS ALL OVER THE SIDE OF MY CAR. THIS IS VERY UPSETTING AND I SEE THIS AS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. IN ADDITION TO THAT THE FINISH OF THE NITRO IS BEING RUINED EVERYTIME I FILL UP. NOW I HAVE TO PUT IN 40 $'S OF GAS IN EACH TIME TO AVOID OVERFLOWING THE TANK. THIS IS OBNOXIOUS. WHO IN THE WORLD WANTS TO STOP AT THE GAS STATION MORE FREQUENTLY BECAUSE OF A GASOLINE TANK MALFUNCTION? WHICH I WOULD HAVE KNOWN BEFORE BUYING THE THING! *TR
