Gas pouring out

Driving to work today I ran out of gas which I have never ran out of gas yet in this truck before. Pull over get gas. Start the truck and TRAC light and check engine light on. Figured it would turn off after a minute. Go into work someone comes and tells me my truck is pouring out gas. It looks like there’s a hole in the fuel tank. Has this happened to anyone yet? It only has 10,500 miles on it and just got the 10k service completed last weekend. I’ve had no issues with this truck, so bummed!

 

you might have hit an object in the road, If its a cracked line then you have warranty issues.

 

Maybe someone drilled your tank to get your gas?

 

Someone probably made that hole to steal your gas

 

Happened to my friend's 2nd gen. Someone actually drilled a hole in the tank to get his gas.

 

take a look at leak area, may be a hole. how far did you get this AM before you ran dry?

 

Why not do it the old fashioned way and open the gas cap and suck it out. lol

 

can't do that anymore, MFG install like a screen or something in the neck i believe to keep people from doing that.

 

Someone drilled a hole in your tank, stole your gas.

 

Well called toyota care and they called 911 cause they had to clear the hazardous area since this is at my work before they can tow. I hope my warranty covers this. He said it’s a pretty big hole.

 

Better call your insurance and get ready for vandalization claim

 

Well thank you for the information. I never knew that.

 

haha, the dude laying on the ground is flipping you off.

 

Doesn't help that the gas "skid" is this cheap POS plastic. Once it's fixed I would get steel or aluminum gas skid.

 

Doesn't matter. The thieves around here can slide under with a big pan, drill your tank with a big hole and be off with your gas in less than two minutes. Metal or plastic. If you have a skid on the bottom, they will drill the sides.

 

This wouldn’t happen from running out of gas right? I don’t remember the low fuel light being on last night when I got home from work. I only live 10 miles away so should’ve had enough gas this morning.

 

Sorry to hear man. that sucks if someone drilled a hole in it. I wouldn’t be very happy

 

Not a chance. You either hit something or somebody stole it.

 

What a bunch of assholes
