| Description of the problem | When filling the gas tank, it will kick the gas back out the filler hole - spraying gas a good 3 ft. In order to get gas into the tank you have to fill very slow and shove paper towels around it and after many tries and nozzle shut offs you can fill the tank. There are no codes showing. When looking at other sites it seems to be a big issue. This car has been to the shop before and no issues found.. Ford complaint.. 10537058, 10255491 http://www. Aboutautomobile.
