[QUOTE="Love the sunshine, post: 191171, member: 5759"] Dreamer, Speaking from experience, if you use the clip on the pump and do not hold the hose, it IS possible for the pump to continue to spray gas, as your husband said. It happened to my son while I was in the car. The safety mechanism malfunctioned and gas sprayed everywhere. Fortunately, he was able to stop it pretty quickly. It did get all over his hands and arms and the outside of the car. It sounds like something similar may have happened with your daughter. If she fainted or got light headed and fell, with a safety mechanism that failed, it's very possible. It angers me that the attendant did nothing to help her. Regarding the gas odor, if you've tried the methods above and nothing has worked, another option is baking soda for the car. It naturally absorbs the liquid and odor, then can be vacuumed at the car wash. Then leave a box under the seat for awhile. Who knows? A baking soda paste may even work for her hair. I hope she starts feeling better soon. And I hope you have some relief soon from the constant worries and struggles. Take care of yourself. [/QUOTE]
