2 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 10/06/2014

I purchased this vehicle from our local Chevrolet dealer on 10/04/2014. I filled the fuel tank on 10/06/2014 and drove it to my residence (about 15 miles. ) when I got home, I noticed there was a streak of a liquid on my driveway when I was backing into my garage. I got out of my truck and noticed a fuel smell and got a trouble light to see if I could determine the source. It was running out below the fuel tank. I then took my floor jack and jacked up the vehicle so I could get a bucket under it to catch the fuel that was running on to the floor. I collected about 1 1/2 gallons. I called the dealer the next morning and they say I am obligated to pay to repair the truck.
