| Description of the problem | On more than 1 occasion, after filling the gasoline tank, the vehicle has stalled shortly after being filled. Yesterday, i filled the tank. Aware of this issue from past experience, i avoided "overfilling" it. Approximately 3 or 4 miles later, i made a righ turn at low speed to enter a parking lot and the vehicle stalled. I lost power steering and struggled to get it turned safely. At first it wouldn't crank, but eventually i did get the truck restarted. I conducted some business, then went back to the truck and started it to head home. Again as i was turning right to exit the parking lot, the vehicle stalled and i had to struggle to get it to restart. This is extremely dangerous and from internet research, i know others are experiencing the same thing. |
