Recall Issued for... BP Gasoline

The automotive industry is constantly being affected by recalls, but don’t ever consider that you’ve seen everything. So, did you think that a recall campaign due to some labels is unusual? Well, what if you car was OK, but the recall would affect its fuel?

This is no joke, BP has recently announced a recall for contaminated gasoline in the northeast Indiana and Northeast Illinois areas.

The campaign affects unleaded regular gasoline that was shipped from BP’s Whiting, Ind. storage facility last week and acquired at BP gas stations and other locations, which include Costoco, Maijer, Thorntons and Luke Oil gas stations, as Times of Northwest Indiana writes.

The gasoline has obviously caused problems to quite a lot of drivers, but BP doesn’t explain the problem, only inviting customers who experienced problems between August 13 and 17 to call 1-800-333-3991 for assistance.
