NHTSA Complaint #11683302 — 2022 PORSCHE 911

Metallic Fuel line located on top of the engine suddenly started leaking. Previous time I drove the car there was no indication of a gasoline leak or odor. There were no warnings or indications of an impending leak until gasoline was emitted from the line. Fortunately when the leak started I was only driving locally and upon returning to my house a raw gasoline odor was apparent at the back of the car. Had I been driving up to Monterey which is a 6 hr. drive I’ve done several times before a gasoline leak over the engine would of likely caused a fire that would have been extremely hazardous. The car was towed into the dealer as it was not even safe for a 5 mile drive. The dealer reported they are seeing many cars with the safe defect. Also this issue has been reported on [XXX] a Porsche enthusiast car forum. [XXX] The dealer corrected the problem and the manufactured is aware. Fortunately for me it occurred before the warranty expires in a few months otherwise the repair cost would of been $12,000 as they must drop the entire engine to access and replace this line.
