Fuel cross flow problem.. Ford had a recall on vehicles with problems of fuel pumping into an already full tank with a two fuel tank system. Check valves not operating correctly and fuel would be pumped onto the ground from the vehicle. Ford corrected the problem with certain years of vehicles including one of my personal vehicles . My son now who also owns a similar vehicle they will not fix this problem with and it is a serious safety issue as it pushes fuel (gasoline) onto the ground and into the garage where it becomes a potential fire hazard. Ford has been contacted and refuse to correct the problem.
