escape fuel fill problems?

hey all, anyone else having this:

my 05 escape 2.3l seems like it doesn't release tank gasses when filling, keeps tripping out pump unless you run it really slowly till about half tank, then seems ok

Question

I occasionally run into the same thing with my 05 Limited...sometimes no problem, other times have to fiddle around with the nozzle to obtain the correct angle of the dangle...puzzling...

Hmm. Wonder if that is the reason my wife never fills up. Everytime I get in it's on empty.

This is a known issue. Your local dealer will have a TSB on this concern that should get you fixed right up. Same concern on my woman's 05 Limited...slow fill/nuisance shutoff. Very annoying, but dealer got it worked out right quick....
