Consumer Description

I JUST PURCHASED A 2007 DODGE NITRO WITH 57334 KMS. ON MY FIRST REFUELING I WAS ALMOST SOAKED IN GASOLINE BECAUSE OF WHAT I DETERMINED LATER AS A FACTORY FAULTY ROLLOVER VALVE IN THE GAS TANK. THE HOSE CLICKS OFF AS THE TANK IS FULL BUT THEN THE GASOLINE GUSHES OUT ALL OVER THE VEHICLE & GROUND. THE AMOUNT IS CONSIDERABLE. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS FIRE ISSUE. ON MY 2ND REFUELING WAS THE SAME THING & EACH ADDITIONAL FILL. HASN'T THERE BEEN ANY RECALLS OR FORCIBLE FIX TO GET THE MANUFACTURE TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE? *TR
