Some cars experienced problems after fuelling at Tesco's Eastville station in Bristol
Several vehicles could have been filled with diesel mixed with water after a mix-up at a Tesco petrol station.
In a video on Facebook one motorist, Safoor Malik, warned drivers away from Eastville station in Bristol.
He said: "They have mixed diesel with petrol in the pumps. Four cars are broken down, God knows how many more."
Tesco said its preliminary investigation "has found water in the diesel at one of the storage tanks at our Bristol East Extra petrol station".
The spokesman added the Eastville petrol station remained closed while they continued to investigate the cause and apologised to customers.
Avon and Somerset Police said it had received no reports of a disturbance at the station, but said it was called at 05:40 BST to reports of a car broken down on the M32 nearby.
