Consumer Description

STRONG FUEL SMELL AFTER FILL UP FOR OVER A YEAR. WAS BROUGHT TO MERCEDES WITH NO FIX. RECENT INSPECTION RESULTED IN FINDING A PUDDLE OF FUEL UNDER THE REAR SEAT ON THE FUEL SENDING UNIT. FURTHER RESEARCH SHOWS THIS IS A ONGOING PROBLEM FOR OTHER E-CLASS AND HAS BEEN REPORTED TO NHTSA, AND CURRENT FIXES IF ANY HAS BEEN FAILING AND EVEN OWNERS HAVING TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR SOMETHING MERCEDES SHOULD BE FIXING UNDER WARRANTY DUE TO THIS SERIOUS POTENTIAL SAFETY AND FIRE ISSUE. I HAVE TWO TODDLERS WHO SIT IN THIS CAR EVERYDAY. *TR
