BMW 528 owners have reported 1 problem related to other fuel system tank mounting (under the other fuel system category). The most recently reported issues are listed below.
I have taken this car in specifically for this complaint twice in the last year. I have a severe gas fume smell in my car, in my trunk and around my car. Happens after I have been driving and park and return to the car typically. Sometimes happens when I have been driving and turn off the car. If I park in my garage the garage smells like gas/gas fumes for a lengthy period of time. I have been told that after testing by the dealer that there is no gas leak. The problem continues. Happens regardless of the amount of gas in the tank. Happens mainly in the warmer months but, I live in az so that accounts for 9 months. I feel the car is dangerous to drive, the fumes are noxious and remain in the interior of the car for awhile. I ask my children to get in the car when it smells like gas fumes upon picking them up from school. I have owned other cars in az and have never experienced an issue with gas fume smells consuming the interior of my car nor garage. I was told by the service manager that complaints similar to mine have surfaced in reno and tucson. Suggesting this may be a result of the gas being different in these two cities. That makes absolutely no sense as I frequently buy gas in phoenix and have gas fume issues. I cannot get the dealer to address the problem to the extent of a solution. I know this is not normal nor acceptable. I fell unsafe with my young children in the car. I fell unsafe driving my car and worry about being hit by someone with gas fume issues in the trunk and car and I have relayed such to the dealer repeatedly. I did not receive any feedback from the dealer after the last service check for leaking gas about 2 weeks ago. I was told the car was safe and to carry on with my 2 hour commute on a busy freeway and they would check with other dealers where the similar complaints had risen.
