It does it every time and I would estimate a least a gal or 2 spill out on the ground in the gas station.
I assume all of the WH tanks come with these dual nozzle tanks and the coach builder decides on which side or both to run the fill tubes.
Anyone else every have this issue? Or know of a recall. It is a big safety issue imo.
I have no idea of how they plug the unused nozzle as you cannot see the top of it. I would have to use a video scope

SKY Pilot: Wayne is correct about the recall, but it was not ONLY for the R26 UFO. They recalled ALL of the chassis that were equipped with the dual fill tanks because the rubber "cap" used to seal off the unused fill port was found to be not very durable when exposed to gasoline.
If you will post the last 8 digits (only) of your chassis vin #, I can verify if yours was included in the recall. It MAY not be too late to get this recall completed at Navistar's expense.
HERE is a link to the recall info:
