NHTSA Complaint #11483856 — 2004 CHEVROLET CORVETTE

I have owned this vehicle the last 6 years. When the amount of fuel is over one-half tank, there is an abnormal odor of fuel. When pulling into the garage, there's fuel leaking if over one-half tank. Once the engine is cut off the fuel leak ceases. To control the issue, I keep the fuel level at less than one-half tank. A certified local mechanic determined the fuel tank and crossover tube cross connector needed to be replaced. The vehicle has not been repaired. The mechanic stated the failure was related to NHTSA Action Number: PE10015 (Fuel System, Gasoline). The approximate failure mileage was 26,500, when i bought the car. The mechanic stated that GM did issue a service bulletin around 2010 stating that GM would make repairs if the failure occurred within 10 years/100,000 miles. The local GM dealer will not repair my vehicle since it is out of time frame window. It's not fair to those who bought the car after the 10-year cutoff point. or do not drive these vehicles very much.
