“Extremely dangerous fuel leak - fuel started to leak from the top of the gas tank, inside the car from under the driver side rear passenger seat. Vehicle was taken to closest shop available when heavy fuel smells were noticed inside vehicle while driving. A local tire shop, hamil firestone, looked under the car and identified that fuel was leaking down the frame to the road. Somehow gasoline was actually leaking from inside the car. I contacted mercedes corp immediately and they sent a tow truck to collect the vehicle. …”
