Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“Filled auto with fuel for first time and drove home, parked in the garage and started to smell gas fumes from driver's side passenger seat area. Learned that there is NHTSA action number: pe12001 pertaining to e55 which was previous year model to mine. Threat of fire under where my child sits is unacceptable. My early model e63 with same fuel issues should be covered. Please cover this model and model year as well!”

NHTSA complaint #10525801, filed 2013-07, 53,200 miles

“Filled my car up with gas and after driving it home there is a very strong fuel smell coming from the car. Looking online I see that many people with the e63 amg cars have also experienced this, and it is a faulty fuel sender unit that is literally leaking fuel out.”

“I filled up the gas, took a short drive home, and parked in the garage. Next day, there is a strong gasoline smell in the garage as well as inside the car. This happened whenever I filled up the gas since then.”

NHTSA complaint #10731449, filed 2015-07, 64,500 miles

“Normal fill up of gas tank causes fuel to leak out of top of sending unit. The seam just below the electrical connection powering the units motor seems to be weakly and/or improperly joined, allowing raw gas to leak out and pool into a small compartment under the drivers side rear seat. When I purchased car used 14 months ago, I noticed extreme gas smell after 1st night in the garage. I immediatly took vehicle back to dealer where they replaced sending unit under 30 day warrenty. …”
