Description of the problem	The vehicle was stable at a costco gas station. When filling the fuel tank, gasoline spews out of the filler tube and sprays all over, including on me! The fuel sprayed from out and around the tank filler neck gasket. I called the dealer and asked the service writer what is going on? He said it was probably the roll-over valve that was in the filler neck. He said it could also be the fuel tank itself, which is costly. I asked about warranty or goodwill he said no. The problem, in the beginning, it was happening intermittently, it would splash back occasionally then it blocked the filler completely where i could only fill at a very slow dribble. I stopped driving any more than short distances and could only get a quarter of a tank in at about 25 minutes of holding the nozzle. Not only is it a fire danger, and a caustic chemical it is an environmental problem with gasoline spilling on to the person filling the truck, the ground, and the airborne fuel particles! I had them replace the fuel filler tube and it turns out not to be the problem! Now they actually told me at the dealership, mcpeeks dodge of anaheim that they would not be fixing my car and said to take it elsewhere! This is a very basic safety complaint on a system that is a basic fault of the design. I need help! Please contact philip copeland state of california bureau of auto repair, who has done a lot of looking into my complaint. His number is (949) 988-5233. He has contacted the dodge factory and the dealership that was my goto repair facility. He got nowhere but talked to everyone concerned and has much information. I have a large notebook filled with documentation, please call me (714)747-7601 thanks in advance.[xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
