ALSO I HAVE HAD THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPEN TO ME IN THE RECALL DATED 3/15/2013. AFTER TAKING A LONG TRIP UP TO SAN FRANCISCO WHEN I GOT HOME MY OIL TANK WAS LEAKING -THERE WAS A STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE COMING FROM MY BACKSEAT.

THE DEALER TOLD ME TO ROLL MY WINDOWS DOWN WHEN DRIVING WHAT? I DROVE MY CAR LIKE THAT FOR APPROX 1 WEEK BEFORE THE FUEL TANK CAME IN. THEY DID PAY FOR IT. I WAS CONCERNED IF I WHERE TO SMOKE IN THE CAR WHAT WOULD HAPPEN?

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

2006 MERCEDES BENZ E500 - I NOTICED A STRONG SMELL OF GAS. OUTSIDE OF THE CAR YOU COULD SMELL GAS COMING FROM THE REAR END UNDER THE WHEEL WELL. INSIDE OF THE CAR IT WAS COMING FROM THE BACK PASSENGER SEAT AREA. I CALLED MERCEDES BENZ CORPORATE OFFICE WHICH THEN DIRECTED MY CALL TO CUSTOMER CARE. THEY SAID THEY WOULD REFER ME TO A AUTHORIZED MB DEALER, AND THEIR WERE NO RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE AT THE PRESENT TIME. THE DEALER THEY REFERRED ME TO WAS WALTER'S MERCEDES BENZ IN RIVERSIDE CA. I TOOK IT IN AND, I RECEIVED A CALL THE NEXT MORNING STATING IT WAS MY FUEL FILTER & SENSOR. THEY ALSO FOUND A SMALL OIL LEAK. FYI I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANY OIL LEAKAGE FROM MY CAR. THEN WENT ON TO TELL ME THAT THE REPAIR WAS NOT COVERED BY ANY RECALLS AND IT WOULD COST ME $790 FOR THE FUEL FILTER REPLACEMENT AND $1300 FOR THE OIL SEAL REPLACEMENT. I WENT ONLINE AND FOUND A VOLUNTARY EMISSIONS RECALL CAMPAIGN #2008-020001. I MENTIONED THIS TO THE DEALER AND THEIR RESPONSE WAS MY VEHICLE WAS NOT ONE OF THE 8,000 VEHICLES EFFECTED BY THIS RECALL, EVEN THOUGH ITS EXACTLY WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY CAR. I PROCEEDED TO LOOK ONLINE WHERE I FOUND SEVERAL OTHER COMPLAINTS MENTION A WARRANTY EXTENSION FOR THE FUEL TANK. I CALLED MB CUSTOMER CARE AND ASKED THEM FOR A COPY OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. THEY EMAILED ONE. IN THIS LETTER IT STATES AS ONE OF THE PARTS COVERED IS THE FUEL FILTER/SENDER. I MENTIONED THAT TO WALTER'S MERCEDES BENZ AND THEY SAID THAT THE EXTENDED WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER MY REPAIR. IT'S VERY EVIDENT THAT MERCEDES BENZ AS WELL AS THE DEALERSHIPS ARE NOT HONORING THESE SO CALLED VOLUNTARY AND EXTENDED WARRANTIES. I REFUSED TO HAVE THE REPAIR DONE AND NOW MY CAR SITS IN MY GARAGE. AFTER BRINGING IT BACK FROM THE DEALER THERE IS NOW OIL LEAKAGE! I NEVER HAD ANY OIL LEAKING UNTIL I TOOK IT TO WALTER'S MERCEDES BENZ DEALERSHIP.

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE

ON 7/23/14, I NOTICED A STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE EMANATING FROM THE INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF MY CAR AFTER REFUELING. I PURCHASED A CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED W211 2006 MERCEDES BENZ E500 FROM MERCEDES-BENZ GREENWAY. I RESEARCHED THE ISSUE ONLINE AND DISCOVERED THAT THE GAS ODOR ISSUE I WAS EXPERIENCING MAY BE RELATED TO A PROBLEM BEING SEEN IN NUMEROUS MERCEDES BENZ E-MODEL VEHICLES. AS ADVISED BY THE OTHER OWNERS HAVING THIS ISSUE, I DETACHED THE REAR SEAT CUSHION FROM THE CAR AND REMOVED THE BOLTS FROM THE CIRCULAR ACCESS PANEL THAT COVERS A PORTION OF THE FUEL TANK ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. IN THE DEPRESSION ON TOP OF THE GAS TANK WHERE NUMEROUS ELECTRICAL WIRES ATTACH TO THE FUEL SENDING UNIT, I FOUND A SIGNIFICANT QUANTITY OF RAW GASOLINE POOLED. THIS PRESENTED A VERY UNSAFE SITUATION AND I WAS NO LONGER WILLING TO PARK THE VEHICLE IN MY GARAGE DUE TO THE POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD. THE POOLING OF RAW GASOLINE ALSO REPRESENTS AN ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE DUE TO THE EVAPORATION AND CREATION OF TOXIC FUMES. I TOOK PHOTOS OF THE RAW GASOLINE SITTING ON THE FUEL SENDING UNIT. MERCEDES-BENZ OF SUGARLAND DEMANDED $1,022.57 TO RECTIFY THE PROBLEM BY REMOVING AND REPLACING BOTH FUEL SENDING UNITS/PUMPS IN MY VEHICLE. MERCEDES-BENZ OF SUGARLAND DID NOT RETURN MY OLD PARTS AFTER I REQUESTED THEM. I FEEL THAT THE MANUFACTURER OF THIS DEFECTIVE COMPONENT SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE TO RECALL IT AND REPLACE IT. I UNDERSTAND THAT THE NHTSA'S CURRENT INVESTIGATION ACTION NUMBERS FOR THIS ISSUE ARE PE-12001 AND EA-13003.

I AM GREATLY CONCERNED. I SMELL GAS INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF MY MERCEDES E500 2006 MODEL. AFTER FUELING UP MY CAR , I SMELL GAS INSIDE THE CABIN TOWARDS REAR SEAT AREA AND OUTSIDE OF THE DRIVERS REAR OF THE CAR. THIS CANNOT BE SAFE AND NOT HEALTHY BREATHING IN FUMES OF GAS . I HAVE CHILDREN THAT SIT IN THE BACK SEAT. THEY ARE BREATHING IN FUMES . MY SON WAS DIAGNOSED WITH CANCER AFTER THIS PROBLEM WITH THE CAR.

I HAVE A 2006 E500 SEDAN. JUST BEFORE THE THREE YEAR WARRANTY EXPIRED, WE NOTICE A STRONG FUEL SMELL IN THE CAR. WE HAD A MERCEDES DEALER, CHECK IT OUT AND THE SERVICEMAN SAID HE FOUND THE PROBLEM WITH A SEAL ON THE FUEL PUMP PANEL BELOW THE LEFT REAR SEAT. SAID HE HAD THE PROBLEM FIXED. THIS WAS THE AREA OF THE PROBLEM BUT HE DIDN'T STOP THE LEAK. AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRED WE HAD THE CAR SERVICED AND THE DEALER FOUND A BAYONET FITTING TO A OVERFLOW CANNISTER DISCONNECTED. THE LEAK PROBLEM STILL PERSIST AND I HAVE RESORTED TO NOT FILLING THE CAR UP WITH GAS. I HAVE HAD TO RIP OUT THE SOUND PROOFING BLANKET UNDER THE REAR SEAT BECAUSE OF FUEL ODORS. ( IT GOT SOAKED. ) THE SEAT FOAM GOT WET IN THE AREA JUST ABOVE THE FUEL ACCESS PANEL. IS THERE A SEAL (O-RING OR OTHERWISE IN THE FUEL TANK O CAP IN THAT ACCESS AREA) SHOULD I TAKE THE CAP OFF AND LOOK FOR A BURR ON THE TANK? WHAT TORQUE VALUE OR HOW TIGHT SHOULD THIS CAP BE SCREWED ON THE TANK?

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE

I RECENTLY NOTICED IN MY 2006 E500 4MATIC THAT AFTER I PUT A FULL TANK OF GAS IN THE CAR, THERE IS A STRONG ODOR OF GAS COMING FROM THE REAR DRIVER SIDE BACK SEAT. MY CAR IS GARAGE KEPT AND ONCE I ENTER THE GARAGE IN THE MORNING TO GO TO WORK, ITS VERY STRONG ODOR OF GAS. I AM CONCERNED THAT THERE IS A GAS LEAK OF SOME SORT.

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE

FUEL SMELL INSIDE CABIN AFTER REFILLING TO 100% CAPACITY. ONLY GOES AWAY ONCE CAR HAS CROSSED 3/4 TANK WHICH IS NORMALLY ABOUT 75 MILES. THERE HAVE BEEN HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS JUST LIKE THIS, I HAVE HAD IT LOOKED INTO AS MUCH AS I COULD, BUT COULD NOT AFFORD TO HAVE MY MECHANIC PULL THE FUEL TANK TO DIAGNOSE FURTHER. THIS NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO AND FIXED. NORMALLY MERCEDES IS EXCELLENT WHEN IT COMES TO SAFETY ISSUES, I'D THINK THEY'D TAKE THIS A BIT MORE SERIOUSLY. THIS INVESTIGATION IS RELATED TO ACTION NUMBER PE12001.

NHTSA complaint #10451814 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE

THE INTERIOR CABIN OF MY 2006 MERCEDES BENZ E500 HAS A STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE, ESPECIALLY AFTER REFUELING. RECENTLY, I GET HEADACHES AND DIZZY WHEN DRIVING, SO I HAVE TO ROLL DOWN THE WINDOWS TO GET RID OF THE SMELL. I HAVE ADDRESSED THIS PROBLEM TO MULTIPLE MERCEDES BENZ SERVICE CENTERS AND THEY SAID THAT THERE IS NO DANGER BUT IF I WANTED THE SMELL TO GO AWAY, IT WOULD COST ME APPX $2000. I FEEL THAT THIS IS A DANGER WHILE DRIVING BECAUSE THE FUMES CAN CAUSE THE DRIVER TO PASS OUT, OR A SPARK IN THE CAR POSSIBLY FROM A SHORT CIRCUIT OR CIGARETTE LIGHTER COULD IGNITE IN THE CAR AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. AFTER DOING RESEARCH REGARDING THIS MATTER, IT SEEMS IT IS THE EXACT COMPLAINT OF: REFERENCE NHTSA ACTION NUMBER: PE12001. I FEEL THAT THIS ENGINEERING/MANUFACTURE DEFECT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED BY MERCEDES BENZ AND REPAIRED DUE TO ITS POTENTIAL HAZARDS IT MAY CAUSE ON THE HIGHWAY.
