Example complaints

“2008 C63 amg-every time fill up tank there very strong gas smell even out door. I tracked down smell from under back seat where gas tank is. Open back seat you will see wet spot from gas leak. This is extremely dangerous that car can get caught on fire. I research online and found many mercedes has same issue and been told by dealer that it tear and wear, and user responsible for repair. My car is 2008 C63 amg, one of top c class model, with 50,000 miles. The gas tank should last much longer than 50,000 mile. This is unacceptable for mercedes or even any brand.”
