confirming the reports from customers, saying in a statement, a third-party carrier accidentally introduced diesel into the supply of regular gasoline, and we stopped sales immediately when it was discovered. we apologize to anyone who may have been impacted by this matter and are taking all appropriate measures to address any complications. >> pretty careless on behalf of the chevron gas station. i think they need to pay more attention. that could cause severe damage. >> reporter: some say it would be noticeable a block from the station but typically can be fixed. >> the diesel should not permanently damage a car, and i'll say that with the caution that if there's something already wrong with the car to begin with, this may help you find out what that problem is. >> they're going to have a nightmare with the insurance company just to try to prove that it was the gas station's fault. >> reporter: mechanics say generally it could take up to $1,000 to make that fix. as for the gas station, chevron

says that error has been fixed. no specific words, though, yet from the company on if or when reimbursements may be coming. reporting live in san ramon, ian cull. >> thank you, ian. new at 11:00, sfo looking to hike fees for uber and lyft. it's part of a plan to ease congestion by charging more for rides that begin or end at the curb in front of the airport terminal. spokesperson for the airport says exactly how much that hike will be is still being negotiated, but it would go into effect in july. uber telling us tonight, quote, we value our partnership with sfo and sport their efforts to korea great experience for travelers. however, the proposed fee increase goes against the consumer friendly approach and will not help to reduce congestion at the airport. just in, the problems in hawaii have reached the white house. tonight president trump approved a disaster declaration. this means that federal money will go to help these communities impacted by kilauea

transcription company in boston called nuance communications. >> an employee of that service got unauthorized access to their medical personal information. so we notified our patients that that had happened. >> reporter: nearly 900 patients' records were accessed. the files include people seen at zuckerberg san francisco general and laguna honda hospitals. investigators say other hospitals in other cities were also affected, but they have not said why. a now former employee of the transcription company accessed thousands of patients' records. >> the good news and what we want to make sure our patients understand is that there is no evidence that this information was put to any use at all, that it wasn't sold or used in any manner, and all of the data has been recovered. >> reporter: the kind of data that was accessed included names, dates of birth, medical record numbers, and even diagnosis and treatment information. now, that transcription company says that it has since tightened its protocols to make it more difficult or hopefully impossible for its employees to

access patients' information. i asked if the department of public health is satisfied with that. they say yes, and they are continuing to work with this company. reporting live in san francisco, sergio quintana, nbc bay area news. >> thank you. all lanes of the san mateo bridge are now open this evening after a major traffic mess earlier today. this is a live look from our bridge camera. you can see it's a peaceful friday night. but take a look at the situation this afternoon. a crash involving several cars, including a ferrari down below, it shut down all eastbound lanes for about an hour. this is the peninsula going into the east bay. at one point, traffic was backed up about eight miles. it happened right around 3:00 p.m. thankfully no major injuries. new at 11:00 tonight, be on alert. morgan hill police are investigating an attempted kidnapping. a 15-year-old boy says he was walking home from sobrato high on thursday when a man supposedly approached him from behind and grabbed him.
