Consumer Description

On my drive home I noticed a strong smell of dizel fuel.Stoped as soon as it was possible . Noticed a fuel was poring to the ground under my engine. Shut it down and call AAA. At the BMW dealership repair shop they found a broken fuel supply line that was rubbing against the vacuum pipe.My car was covered with fuel from engine to a trunk to everything under including muffler ,soaking wet weals and tires, I lost a half tank of fuel in about 5 minutes. It's scare me a lot ,I think it was a miracle it did not catch a fire on 93 degree day, my wife will never sit in this car again.I will feel guilty if I will sell this car to somebody else.Don't know what to do now. What kind of design it is? How fuel line can constantly rub something else? This car just over 70000 miles, garage kept, never been in any accidents, well maintain.
