Gasoline Storage problems of the 2003 Buick Rendezvous

Fuel system, gasoline:storage fuel tank leakage on the side of the fuel tank, when tank is filled up to 3/4 of tank or is filled to full tank.

I am having to replace my fuel tank on 2003 Buick Rendezvous since I could smell it leaking fuel and making noise. This is costing me 850. 00. I noticed there was a recall on this.

Fuel tank inlet connection to fuel tank has fractured, allowing vapors and fuel to escape from the fuel tank. The area around the joint is moist with fuel, and leaking droplets make a spot on the driveway underneath fuel tank. Symptoms are identical to recall number 07v349000 (rendezvous 2002-2004) but dealer says recall does not apply to this car.

The contact owns a 2003 Buick Rendezvous. The contact smelled gasoline and noticed fuel leaking from the gas tank. The mechanic stated that the fuel tank was fractured and he made the replacement. The manufacturer stated that his VIN was not included in NHTSA campaign id number 07v349000 (fuel system, gasoline:storage). The current and failure mileages were 97,000.

The contact filed a formal complaint with the manufacturer. The failure mileage was 42,000 and current mileage was 43,000.

: the contact stated the vehicle was parked when the contact noticed a pool of gas underneath the vehicle. Upon inspection, the filler nozzle elbow coming out of the gas tank appeared to be a two piece unit. The seam around the filler elbow seemed to be leaking. Changed comp code. Pco.

I own a 2003 Buick Rendezvous awd. Service engine light came on Saturday. Sunday gas was dripping from my car. I was told by my mechanic that the failure was between the fuel intake valve and the fuel tank. He suggested that I check to see if there were any recalls for that particular problem and there was for the exact same problem on 2004 models. I can only get parts through the dealership and I am trying to resolve this with them right now. In the meantime I have to be afraid to drive my car with my children, and my car smells like gasoline.
