Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problems of the 2004 Acura MDX

The fuel gauge indicated that the tank was half empty. As soon as I began to fuel the car, the fuel overflowed spilling on the vehicle. I suspect that the fuel vapor recovery system might be defective.

While trying to fill the gasoline tank recently, I could only add . 2 to . 3 gallon at at time. The gasoline cuts off intermittently. I took the SUV to my local repair shop, where I was told it was a common problem with this model. They recommended I take it to the dealer. The local repair shop recommendation was as follows: 1) replace the filler neck, 2) replace the orvr vaper valve and 3) possibly replace the gasoline tank. This SUV has been maintained, looks and drives great. It is one owner, has 187,000 miles and I would like to keep until 250,000 miles.

Same as all other complaints about fuel back flowing during a fill up. Also, can't fill up the tank because the gas pump keeps cutting off during fill up. Takes over 15 minutes just to try and fill up the tank and that is not always successful. Obviously Acura has a 'known' problem with the tank but they won't admit it to the public because then they will have to fix it at their cost. They are hoping that we will continue to pump money into useless repairs, then they may address the issue.

Through out this year 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. This past summer I had the Acura dealer repair the problem. They could not determine a solution. I paid about $150. 00.

I am the sole owner of my 2004 Acura Mdx touring package. It just turned 200,000 miles but this gas pumping problem has been occurring for several years. When attempting to pump gas, fuel repeatedly backs up in the neck and trips off the gas pump, making a routine stop at the gas station a nightmare. You can only pump at the lowest speed and even then the gas pump still trips off because fuel backs up to the top of the neck. From on line research, I suspect the issue to be a faulty anti siphoning device (asd) which closes off in the neck and prevents fuel from passing, thereby backing up and tripping off the gas pump. It can take 30 minutes or more to fill the tank with gas. . . That is if you have enough patience to stand there that long. This is simply not reasonable and Honda should recall this model and make the necessary repairs. With the other multiple complaint entries for the same issue there is clearly a problem with this make/model. I have been told the only solution to repair the asd is to replace the entire gas tank, which is roughly $1000. I respectfully request this issue be addressed for everyone experiencing this problem.
