Gas fueling question
Hope everybody is enjoying their tC!! I know I am.
Question. When I fill up the tC, normally the gas pumps cuts OFF immediately and I have to squeeze the trigger. It will normally do this a couple of times and then I just manually hold the trigger and fill it up. I have heard a bunch of things such as the lip over the nozzle is not tight on the tC and the tC thinks the gas tank is full (though it is not), etc.
Any thoughts!!!

Every car I've filled up has done this every now and then.
It has to do with temperatures and angle of fill hose.
Dont nit-pick, how much energy does it take to squeeze it again? I mean....come on.
