| Description of the problem | Attempted to fill my gas tank. The fuel kept overflowing. I was only able to get $15 in gas as i had to slowly pump, wait for the overflow of gas to stop, then slowly attempt to add more gasoline. This took almost 15 minutes. The only reason i kept trying to get more gas in was the truck was on empty.
