| Description of the problem | At about 89,000 miles i noticed when filling the truck the nozzle would click off many times before it was filled. It steadily got worse as time went by, it started to spit gas back all over the truck and myself. The dealer told me it was either the filler tube or the whole gas tank both of which are over $2200. 00 dollars to replace. They said if i paid $150. 00 they would narrow it down. I paid the fee and was told it was the filler neck. They replaced it only to find it was not the problem. I tried to fill it up and was greeted by a gas spray as it had done before, it was not fixed! On top of that, the service manager, craig refused to do any more work on the vehicle and to take it elsewhere! |
