Consumer Description

PARKED AND ENGINE OFF: WHEN REFUELING, THE GAS BUILDS UP, AS IT "BURPS" GAS SPILLS OUT UNDER THE CAR WHEEL AND ON TO THE PAVEMENTS. THE REFUELING TAKES FOREVER, SINCE WE PURCHASED IT - WE SMELLED OUR HANDS & SHOES SMELLING LIKE GAS, BUT DIDN'T CONNECT IT IMMEDIATELY TO FUEL SYSTEM ISSUE SINCE IT WAS A NEW CAR.
