Customers are reporting vehicle issues after pumping gas at the 7-Eleven in Sterling, claiming that "excessive" amounts of water are being found in their fuel tanks when taken to get inspected. The water in the tanks is reportedly causing several vehicles to suddenly break down, costing the effected customers thousands in estimated repairs, the outlet continues.

One customer reports that over 60% of his fuel tank was found to be filled with water after filling up his tank with mid-grade fuel at the 7-Eleven, which has since confirmed the reports of tainted fuel at the Sterling location. Although several effected customers experienced slow responses from 7-Eleven when attempting to contact them about the issue, 7-Eleven is telling anybody experiencing issues related to the reports of tainted gas to call 1-800-255-0711.
