Consumer Description

WHILE FUELING MY JEEP, FUEL CAME SPEWING FROM THE FILLER NECK BEFORE THE PUMP SHUT OFF. THIS CAUSED APPROXIMATELY 1/8 GALLON OF FUEL TO SPILL ON MY VEHICLE AND MYSELF. WHILE DRIVING AFTER THIS INCIDENT I HAD TO PULL OVER AND GET OUT OF MY VEHICLE AS I WAS BECOMING DISORIENTED FROM EXPOSURE TO THE FUEL/FUEL VAPORS THAT SPILLED ON ME. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO REALIZE QUICKLY THAT MY LEVEL OF ALERTNESS WAS DETERIORATING AND WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER, ROLL DOWN MY WINDOWS, AND ALLOW THE FUMES TO DISSIPATE. I FEEL THAT THIS IS A VERY BIG SAFETY CONCERN THAT COULD CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT IF NOT ADDRESSED AND FIXED QUICKLY. *TR
