Dealer is not responsible for water in the gas tank if I remember correctly. In Texas, you can call DOT and they will come test the station suspected of 'bad gas' within 72 hrs (There are severe penalties for pranking a station - do not do it). Don't quote me on the language 'bad gas' while on the phone with them, there are specific situations which allow them to come test immediately. Since DOT is Federal, I recommend calling your local office and consult an attorney before allowing the dealership to repair the vehicle. Only in so much so that your attorney can work with the dealership to document the repair properly for your civil lawsuit against the gas station. The station should have liability insurance for this, hopefully.
