Lately I can't squeeze the gas fill handle more than 20% before I get backsplash and it gets all over my hands. Takes considerably longer to fill up. I did a search here and found nothing. I can't believe I am the only one.
 
Crawl up underneath and see if the fill tube is being pinched or is kinked. It may have come loose at a spot and let it do that.
 
There was an issue with the hoses in the rear wheel well below the filler door coming off and getting clogged and causing a slow fill situation...



There is also a TSB on this as well...

Todd, unless I am mistaken, there is a hose at the front left wheel well that has a TSB on it..



FYI on your issue.

The hose falls off, gets dirt into it and then the tank cant vent when being filled.



Since it is an emmisions issue that is why there is TSB on it.
 
Kevin, You are mistaken, IT is the Rear Left,,, Not front... :lol::p:p:p
