Description of the problem | Capless fuel filler allows water to collect between the outer door and the inner door of the filler neck. Approximately 15ml of water collects in this area after any rainfall. The water enters the tank when the fuel nozzle is inserted. Water in the fuel system can cause vehicle performance problems as well as maintenance codes which require dealer service to repair. In cold climates, the water freezes preventing fueling of the vehicle. This situation has happened to me twice already this winter, one time required the vehicle to stay inside until the ice melted and the water could be extracted. |
