Failure Date: 12/26/2019

Smelling fuel when I fill my tank and also noticed fuel on the ground if parked for an extended period. Took my car in and they stated the fuel tank has a hairline crack and BMW has since reinforced the part. Seems like they know it is prone to cracking and have made the fix but not issued a recall.
