| Description of the problem | Stopped at gas station to fill up tank. Held down the handle until the tank was full and the pump is supposed to cut off. It worked correctly. However, immediately after it cut off, gas spewed back up out of the gas tank. It was enough to spill out onto the side of the vehicle and the ground below. I would estimate the amount that spilled out was about a 1/4 of a gallon. I bought the vehicle used in july with about 35,000 miles. The first few refills did not do this. It has happened on approx. The last three refills in a row at three different gas stations. Do not have a cause or solution. There are several others with the same vehicle with the same problem starting to occur.
