Consumer Description

MY VEHICLE HAS ONLY 19500 ORIGINAL MILES WHICH I BOUGHT FROM MY AUNT WHO DIDN'T DRIVE THE CAR THAT MUCH BECAUSE OF GAS SMELL INSIDE ESPECIALLY AFTER FILLING UP GAS FULL TANK WHICH I ALSO ENCOUNTERED THAT MAKES ME WORRY THAT MIGHT CAUSE COMBUSTION OR FIRE. I SEARCH THE INTERNET AND MOST THE MB E-CLASS OWNERS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WHICH IS I THINK THE MOST IMPORTANT TO RECALL BECAUSE IT IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE THAT POSSIBLY CAN CAUSE FIRE OR WILL LOST LIVES. I HAVE 3 KIDS WITH ME DRIVING AND PICKING THEM UP AT SCHOOL AND IT REALLY WORRIES ME. NHTSA PLEASE MAKE AN INVESTIGATION ON THIS REGARD ASAP. THANK YOU AND MORE POWER.
