1 Tank Filler Pipe And Cap problem

Failure Date: 01/10/2012

I have been having problems with my 2011 Mini countryman s all4 in regards to check engine indicator. I have taken my car for service of the check engine indicator 4 times now. Each time it has been caused by fuel in the charcoal filter system. Each time I have been told it is from overfilling the fuel tank, which I do not do. I am careful to stop fueling the first time the pump kicks off, especially after the first time this happened. The first 2 times the dealer changed the charcoal filter at no cost. The 3rd time they changed the fuel tank at no charge. I had no problems for about a year, and the check engine indicator came on again on 12/18/13, I scheduled service as soon as possible. Turns out that for the 4th time fuel was in the charcoal filter. The dealer can't seem to find the source of the problem and this is very annoying to say the least. Would like to turn in the car now, lease ends in 7 months, and stay away from BMW and Mini from now on!!.
