Consumer Description

WHEN FILLING UP THE GAS TANK THE GAS OVERFLOWS OUT ONTO THE CAR AND THE FLOOR. I HAVE READ THAT THERE IS A VALVE THAT SHOULD STOP THE GAS FROM SPILLING OUT OF THE TANK IN CASE OF A ROLLOVER AND THAT IS THE PART THAT IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. I HAVE STOPPED TRYING TO FILL UP MY GAS TANK BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM. *TR
