The vehicle had been driven for over 300 miles one this particular tank of gas, so I'm certain that the fuel gauge is correct; the gas light is also on. I parked at a gas station and put the car in park and turned off the car. I attempted to fill the tank, but the fuel will not go in. The fuel splashes back out and will not go into the tank.

My car the gas shoots out, I have to go through all this with a new car my engine light been on from the time I bought it this car gave me problems every time I bring it back they said just drop it off so we can try fixing it it take up to three days are more plus they don't give out loaner car at all so how I suppose to get to work so I continue to drive it like that.I don't know why I brought this car. It wasted my money and time.
I was parking my car yesterday at 7/11 and the car accelerated on it's own and crashed into a cement pillar. The airbag did not deploy. I have seen a blog where dozens of Forte owners complained about the same issue, sometimes more than once. I was injured and the car needs $9000 in repairs, also I am sure my insurance will increase.
