What owners wrote
While driving at 65 MPH consumer heard a noise from under the vehicle. Consumer continued to drive until another motorist indicated that there was a problem with the fuel tank. Consumer pulled into a gas station and found that a hole was in the plastic fuel tank. Manufacturer and the dealer were aware of the problem.
Often during refueling of my vehicle the gas pump shuts off after a few moments of refueling. At times, the gasoline backs up in the tube and spews back out onto the vehicle and the ground despite having a near empty fuel tank . It has become necessary to squeeze the pump handle lightly and trickle the gasoline into the fuel tank. I have also found this to occur at different gas stations as well. Thank you for your assistance into this matter.
