| I have attempted to fill my gas tank several times and the hose keeps tripping off after a couple seconds. i can't put more than two or three gallons in my car and it takes forever to do that. gas runs out of the tank on to the side of the car and the tires. i called acura and they said there is no recall for this issue and that they can't do anything about it. | |||

| I own a 2004 acura mdx with approx. 58,000 mi. the problem i'm experiencing is when ever i try to fuel the vehicle it either stops automatically after about 0.2 gal or it overflows onto the body and tires also after about0.2 gal. i noticed it about 6-8 weeks ago, so i started going to a different gas station where it would fill without problems, but just in the last week, it does it all the time no matter what gas station i go to. i feel this to be a safety hazard due to the fact any fuel spill is hazardous, let alone if it spills onto the rear tire when the breaks are hot on a hot summer day and i just got out of a traffic jam where i was constantly having to break. all though i've read many complaints of this same problem with other mdx owners on various on-line forums, acura has yet to make a recall for this and fix the problem. | |||
