Other Fuel System problem

Regarding a fuel leak on my 2012 Chevrolet Colorado wt, caused by severe corrosion of the in-tank fuel pump module. This issue is of great concern, as it poses a potential fire hazard due to fuel spray near the exhaust system. Upon reviewing official documentation, I found that recall 17v-243 appears to address a similar defect affecting 2004–2012 Colorado and canyon models with corrosion-prone fuel tank assemblies and retaining rings. However, my VIN does not currently show as part of that recall on NHTSA. Gov. The only warning sign of a problem per gm protocol is detecting the odor of gasoline around the vehicle. The truck has not been inspected by gm, police, insurance, or anyone except myself. I have attached a video showing the leak.
