How did a tank of gas cost one woman $500?

Erin Jenkinson was on her way to school in mid-November when she said she filled up at the Marathon gas station at 3915 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. in Fort Myers. After filling up, Jenkinson said her car immediately stopped working properly.

A few days later, Jenkinson said her car would no longer drive.

She got it towed to a repair shop.
