09 filler tube leaking

Got a 09 f150 and I was filling up and noticed a stain on my leaf spring. Looked at the filler tube and its all stained w gas,I assume. I'm going to take it to ford but was wondering if anyone else has had this problem and if so why did it happen and how was it fixed?

One time at fill-up I had it leak a small amount and thought it was super strange. It's never happened afterwards. I didn't know if it was because the pump was filling too fast for the filler tube.

That happened to me too. I looked at the tube didn't see any leaks as I continued to pump but there is residue on the tube as though it has a slow leak

I've had mine leak about a 1/4 of a cup of fuel twice after filling the tank. I pulled the nozzle out immediately after the second click and saw the fuel drop on the ground. When I waited a few seconds after the second click to pull the nozzle out, no fuel spilled.

Did you notice if the pump was pumping faster than normal?
