What owners wrote

Almost every time I fuel the vehicle gas shoots out of the filler neck when the pump stops. The first time , gas was gushing out and down the side of the car onto the ground because the pump did not stop. Luckily it did not catch fire. This is on a new 2008 chevrolet corvette z 06 ! It is very critical that I do not try to put in more gas when the pump stops or it shoots out of the filler neck. My 2001 corvette z06 never had this problem. I hope this never results in a fire , I do not want to see my car burn.
