2004 Chevrolet com. Edition z06 Corvette. Purchased in sept 2008 with 5500 miles from the original selling dealership. Now with approx 9800-10,000 miles a fuel leak has developed when fueling the car up. At approx +1/2-3/4 tank fuel spills out under the car on the drivers side. This year saw an installation of a new stainless fuel crossover line between the tanks. They have been notorious for leakage along with the driver's side tank in the area where the crossover line couples to the tank. Along with what I consider a major safety risk due to the possibility of fire, (the exhaust and fuel tank are in very close proximity) this also must be an epa/emission violation from escaping fumes, vapors and fuel. This vehicle has been painstakingly maintained and is in as new condition (10,000 miles) this is a defect from gm and due to the inherent possibility of loss of life and/or property damage should be recalled or at least repaired by an authorized gm dealership. This vehicle does have a 80,000 mile emission warranty under which this falls.

My 2004 Corvette z06 leaked gasoline from the hose that interconnects both fuel tanks. The tanks and connector were replaced by extended warranty but they were replaced with one of similar identical design. After doing some research it seems like this was not a one case even m any 2004 owners report the same issue. Considering the risk of the problem a more appropriate redesign should be performed.

At about 15000 miles the fuel tank began leaking/smelling of gas after a fill up. Dealer did replace tank under the extended warranty. Dealer description: 25565 leaking fuel tank line l1280 2. 1 (gmpp) inspected the fuel system for a leak and found the hard line to the top of the fuel tank is leaking at the connection to the tank. Removed the fuel tank and drained the tank. Swapped the sending unit and installed the new tank. Repairs were done on the right side tank. Tech 2310.

I smelled gas in my garage for approximately 1 week but found no leaks. While filling up at gas station I notice a large puddle forming under car and saw gas leaking from tank. Dealer said gas leak was found in gas tank, crossover fuel line and two other fuel lines. Very dangerous situation. Dealer said manufacturer defect in parts. Took 10 days to repair as the first time tank was replaced there was no fuel pressure and had to be redone.

The vehicle was started up then turned off. There was a whisteling sound, and white smoke was noticed coming from the right rear wheel, the vehicle was then back up and flames where noticed. The fire department put the fire out, and determined the cause was the fuel filter. Chevrolet has been contacted.
