I started having problems fueling my 2004 Freestar after I began driving on gravel roads here in central missouri. The tank vent kept getting clogged up and when I tried to fill fuel tank, pressure would build in tank causing fuel to come spraying out of fill spout. I had gas sprayed on hands and clothing repeatedly. I finally had a mechanic reroute fuel vent line to air intake in motor compartment. Now I no longer have trouble. It cost me about $ 250 to have this done. I believe the problem is a flaw in design. My mechanics inlaws have the exact model as mine and have same problems. Please advise about reimbursement for repair. Thanks!.
'04 Ford Freestar quick connect on fuel line will come loose, spraying fuel on muffler and exhaust system! no repair kit available. Have to buy complete fuel line. This is the 2nd time on this same vehicle. I'm an auto-tech and had to repair this same vehicle before for the same thing.
