Bad Gas Leads to Breakdowns

One of the car owners, Adrianna Garland, said, “I filled up, made it maybe a mile on the highway going to Jacksonville and then the car just started shaking and it stopped running.” 

The car repairs as well as towing are costing drivers hundreds of dollars.

Many drivers called the gas station to complain about the faulty gas to which the Pilot station responded saying, “Upon being alerted to the potential issue, we immediately turned off the dispensers and started investigating the situation. It appears excessive rain made its way into the regular unleaded tank, which is now in the process of being tested and repaired. Currently, all dispensers are operational and selling super unleaded fuel at the regular unleaded price until the situation is fully resolved. We are continuing to closely monitor the fuel at this location”
