#719592March 2, 2000
FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY:FILLER PIPE AND CAP
MY GAS TANKS OVERFLOW OUT MY FILLER CAPS. I CALLED FORD THEY TOLD ME MY TRUCK HAD BEEN FIXED IN 1994 WHEN THEY SENT OUT A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM. WELL I STILL HAVE THE PROBLEM, AND WHEN I TALKED TO ONE OF YOUR REPS THEY TOLD ME THERE IS AN ONGOING IVESTIGATION FOR THIS PROBLEM. MAYBE THEIR FIX WASN'T A FIX AFTER ALL. WHAT SHOULD I DO ? DO I HAVE SOMEONE TRY TO FIX THE PROBLEM ACCORDING TO WHAT FORD SAYS TO FIX IT , OR AM I WASTING MONEY ON SOMETHING THEY REALLY DON'T HAVE A FIX FOR. ALSO IS FORD RESPONSIBLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM CORRECTLY { I MEAN IF IT WASN'T FIXED RIGHT THE FIRST TIME } THANK YOU. *AK
