“Attempted to refuel vehicle when suddenly after an employee tried to repair dispenser gasoline exploded from the nozzle forcefully into my face especially my left eye, nose and mouth. The employee could not stop the gasoline from coming out so he threw the entire dispenser in my car floor board. My three year old daughter was buckled in her car seat in the rear passenger side of the vehicle. This refueling accident occurred june 2, 1995. It has never been fully investigated by competent experts to determine what can be done to prevent future refueling injury, fire, and explosion. …”
