Meijer warns contaminated gas sold in Auburn Hills

Meijer is warning about 850 customers who purchased fuel at its station on Brown Road in Auburn Hills on Monday or Tuesday that the gasoline may have been contaminated, and to contact the company right way so it can be fixed.

The company said its fuel supplier inadvertently put the wrong fuel in the underground tanks, mixing up the diesel and regular and mid-grade unleaded fuels.

Meijer spokesman Frank Guglielmi said it's unclear what damage this might cause to vehicles, but the Grand Rapids retailer said it has resolved the problem at the pumps, and is urging all customers who bought gas between 1 a.m. Monday and 2 p.m. Tuesday at the pumps to call the company at 800-543-3704 so vehicles can be checked out and repaired, if necessary, at the company's expense.

"Everyone's vehicle could react differently," he said

Guglielmi added Meijer also was trying to contact customers who they could track through their credit card numbers.
