Consumer Description

WHEN FILLING THE CAR UP YOU CANT GET 1.5 GALS IN BEFORE IT SPITS FUEL OUT ON YOU AND THE SIDE OF THE CAR. THE FUEL TANK IS COLLAPSING AND PUSHING FUEL OUT OF TOP OF TANK AND ONTO THE GROUND WHILE PARKED AND DRIVING REALLY WORRIED ABOUT CAUSING UNDERCARRIAGE FIRE AND I HAVE RESEARCH THIS AND A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. THE DEALER COST ALMOST $1,000 TO FIX IT, WE NEED TO MAKE THIS A RECALL FOR THE PEOPLE'S SAFETY AS WELL AS MY FAMILY'S THANK YOU. *TR
