Consumer Description

I OWN A 2006 FORD EXPLORER. THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCE A FAILURE ON THE FUEL FILL SYSTEM IN 2008. I WAS NOT ABLE TO PUT MORE THAN A GALLON OF GAS IN AT A TIME, WAIT FOR AWHILE, ADD ANOTHER GALLON, ETC AS THE FUEL FILL WOULD ACT AS THOUGH THE TANK WAS FULL. TOOK TO A DEALER AND HAD IT REPLACED BASED ON TSB#07253. EXPERIENCED THE SAME FAILURE AGAIN NOW IN 2011 AND BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD SINCE IT WAS MORE THAN 12 MONTHS SINCE THE ORIGINAL REPLACEMENT I HAD TO PAY THE DEDUCTIBLE AGAIN TO HAVE THE WORK DONE. *TR
