NHTSA Complaint #11307552 — 2015 MERCEDES-BENZ C300

THE VEHICLE HAS 67K MILES. I NOTICED A GASOLINE ODOR COMING FROM THE AC A MONTH AGO SINCE THEN, THE ODOR INTENSITY HAS DRASTICALLY INCREASED. THE ODOR USUALLY GOES AWAY AFTER A FEW MILES, HOWEVER, TODAY THE ODOR DID NOT GO AWAY AND I NOTICED AN ONSET OF A HEADACHE SINCE COMMENCING THE DRIVE, I THEN BECAME VERY DROWSY AND WAS VERY CLOSE TO REAR-ENDING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME ON THE WAY HOME, BUT THANKFULLY THE COLLISION WARNING SYSTEM EMITTED A LOUD SOUND AND I WAS ABLE TO REACT IN TIME TO PRESS THE BRAKES AND AVOID THE COLLISION. THERE WAS A RECALL ON 3/10/2015 FOR VEHICLES MANUFACTURED BETWEEN APRIL 7, 2014, AND JULY 25, 2014, FOR AN ISSUE WITH THE FUEL DELIVERY MODULE AND THE TANK, MY VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED JANUARY 2015, HOWEVER, I BELIEVE THE SAME ISSUE IS CAUSING THE GASOLINE FUMES I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING IN MY VEHICLE AC SYSTEM.
