Consumer Description

NOTICED THE SMELL OF FUEL WHILE EXITING THE VEHICLE. LOOKED UNDER THE VEHICLE AND NOTICED A FUEL LEAK UNDER THE DRIVER'S SIDE PASSENGER DOOR. FUEL WAS LEAKING AT THE APPROXIMATE RATE OF 3 GALLONS PER 24 HOURS. DROVE THE CAR TO THE DEALER THE NEXT MORNING. DEALER DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS A CRACK IN THE FUEL SENDER LOCATED ON TOP OF THE GAS TANK (NOT THE FUEL PUMP WHICH WAS REPLACED UNDER THE PRIOR RECALL). WHEN ASKED HOW THE LEAK DEVELOPED THE DEALER STATED THAT THE PLASTIC FITTING CRACKED DUE TO THE CYCLING OF TEMPERATURES (SAME REASON FOR FUEL PUMP FAILURE AND RECALL). *TR
