Automobile Association of America calls on government to halt sale
By Miriam Raftery
January 2, 2013 (San Diego’s East County) – The American Automobile Association (AAA) has issued a press release urging the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to suspend sale of E15 fuel (a blend of 15% ethanol from corn and 85% gasoline). AAA warns that 13 major automobile manufacturers say that use of E15 fuel could void warranty claims.
E15 fuel is not currently sold in California, however it is allowed in approximately 30 states and is currently available for sale in several. The EPA authorized its sale in June 2012 over objections of the auto industry.
