Escape

  • Automatic transmission
  • miles
When filling the gas tank, the automatic shut off when the tank is full does not function. This leads to excess gas spilling out. This has occured at numerous self-serve and full serve gas stations indicating that it is not a problem with the pump but a problem with the design of the gas tank/intake mechanism.
