2007 Mercedes-Benz C230 Fuel system Problems

“When I fill up with gas, the car salon fills up with the gas smell. The problem should be in the fuel pump or so. The smell is persistent in the garage. While driving, I did not notice. When the amount of gas in the fuel tank decreases, the smell goes away. I removed the back seat and so the gas residue over the pump.”

“Balance shaft is bad mercedes wants $5833 to fix it now they have a class action lawsuit against them for that they should have to pay the whole amount to fix it as I looked for recall I found the problem for my gas tank that should have been recalled to if you fill the car up you can smell gas need help to fix this”

“Every time I filled up the gas tank I would smell gas in the cabin and outside of the vehicle. It has been like this for two years. My car has very low mileage and it drives fine. I keep forgetting to tell the dealership the issues when I bring it in for maintenance. There is definitely an issues with the gas tank. It is getting worst as time goes by.”

“For last three plus years, whenever gas tank is filled over the 3/4 full mark there is a heavy gas odor but I have not seen leaking gas. I only put in less than 9 gallons of gas at a time fearing an explosion in my garage where water heater is located.”

“After refueling car to full, car has a strong fuel smell. The smell persists if the car is over 3/4's full or greater. This has happened since I purchased this car but I couldn't determine where the smell was coming from until I took it to the mechanic and he said the fuel was spilling from the top of the fuel sending unit!!! He mentioned that this is a safety issue and that I need to check if this recalled already. I am now very mortified of this issue!!!”
