You're not the only one. I too have a 2007 and if I let the lever on the gas pump "lock", mine also spills over. I have only had my truck for about a month, and have topped off 1 time a week, and the first 2 times, the gas spilled all over the side. Now I justdo the math and put in what I need. Luckily my gas stations are within a block of the car wash I normally use.

 

Our 08' PowerWagon does the same thing. Have to listen & slow down I guess.

 

mine does the same thing. I just ease up when it gets to the top. it took me acouple times to figure that out

 

It's a common problem. Take it to the dealer and keep pestering them until they warranty it. Sometimes mine does it, sometimes it doesn't. I just learned a while ago not to fill up if I wasn't going to wash the truck immediately afterward, so, it helps me maintain a regular weekly wash schedule. It's still a pain in the *** when I go on a trip though.

 

Mine does spills over also...it does it less if you put the pump handle on the first latch for the auto pump.

 

i have always wondered though, will fuel actually really harm the paint? I always keep a bottle of Meguair's mist&wipe in the truck and clean it off immediatley if it does spill, and wax that spot when i get home. As long as you clean it off, it shouldn't really hurt the paint, right?

 

I wouldn't say it's good for the clear coat...it won't soften the paint like brake fluid though. When mine spills over I just use a shop towel to wipe it off, anything left will just evaporate.

 

You know Raider I thought it was just me reference to the Hess stopping at $75. It used to stop at $50 but has changed about 3 months ago. So far though mine has yet to spill. Now it will.

 

I had the same problem with my 2007 Ram 1500. I took it in and found out it was a problem with the vapor recovery system within the tank. This causes the gas to spit back up after pump clicks off. Under the warranty, they ordered a new tank and replaced it. Have not had any problems since. I've told 3 others about it, they had theirs replaced as well. It took about an hour for them to replace it.

 

I don't fill mine (costs fuel to carry fuel). When it gets to 1/4 tank, I put six gallons of 93 and eight gallons of 87.
