| Description of the problem | After i fill my gas tank off and drive, the car will stall and shut off. And steering locks up. Almost been in serval accidents because of this issue. Other people have filed about this same issue. Some people say its the vapor/liquid separator valve. Not sure, but regardless, this issue needs to be looked at before someone gets killed because of it. I called the dealership and all they tell me is that i need to replace the fuel tank at my cost. |
