Consumer Description

WHILE FILLING CAR WITH GAS, THE GAS SPEWED BACK AT ME AND GOT ALL OVER MY RIGHT SIDE AND INTO MY EYE. FORTUNATELY, MY EYESIGHT WASN'T IMPAIRED. SINCE THEN WHILE PUTTING GAS IN THE CAR, IT CLICKS OFF AS THOUGH IT IS FULL AND IT TAKES A LONG TIME TO FILL THE PUMP AND IT STILL OVERFLOWS IF I AM NOT CAREFUL. THIS IS A WASTE OF GAS AND THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT THESE COMPLAINTS SOON! *TR
