The contact stated he had problems filling the gas tank. When he tried to fill the gas tank the gas immediately began to spill out. The vehicle was taken to various mechanics, each mechanic gave a different reason for the problem. No solution has been successful in correcting the defect.

While driving at 35 mph engine check light kept coming on, and vehicle stalled. Also, when trying to put fuel into the vehicle, the fuel leaks out and the consumer can't put fuel into vehicle. This is the second time this has happened.
