THIS IS AN A SERIOUS ONGOING PROBLEM. THIS FORD F-150 HAS DUAL GAS TANKS, FRONT AND REAR. IN THIS TRUCK THE FRONT TANK IS SOMEHOW GETTING OVER FILLED AS YOU DRIVE ALONG AND SPEWS FUEL. REMOVE THE CAP AND GAS GUSHES OUT. A LITTLE GOOGLING SHOWED THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO A LOT OF F-150S. HAVING HAPPENED TO A NUMBER OF THESE TRUCKS THERE MUST BE A RECALL OR AT LEAST A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN THAT SAID WHAT NEEDED TO BE DONE TO FIX IT. THIS MUST BE COVERED BY A SAFETY RECALL. MOST RECALLS SEEM TO BE FOR RELATIVELY MINOR ISSUES. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE. MOST RECALLS DON'T FIX PROBLEMS THAT APPROACH THE HAZARD TO LIFE AND PROPERTY THAT WOULD BE ENDANGERED IF THE VEHICLE BURST INTO FLAME.
