Default Gas pump keeps shutting off when trying to fill tank

All of a sudden my 2002 9 5 Aero won't take gas from the pump. Everytime I try to pump gas, the nozzle keeps shutting off. I can only pump if I pull the handle just a tiny amount. So, a fill up takes 10 minutes doesn't matter if I try to pump gas manually or use the nozzle trigger lock. Anyone have a clue????? This really sucks.

i have the same problem, the only way i fixed it was by really pushing the nozzle hard into the gas tank and keeping pressure on it. i don't know the exact problem but at least it takes less time to fill up

hi, when the nozzle is in the filler , try twisting the nozzle to either side , or try lifting it up or down /
