Tank Assembly problems of the 2008 Honda Civic Hybrid

Gasoline leak where filler tube attaches to fuel tank. Noticed strong gasoline smell in garage, put car on ramps and could see fuel dripping from spot where the filler tube connects to the fuel tank. Dealer says that the entire tank must be replaced and they are back ordered nationwide. So this is happening to others and no recall???? updated 11/10/11.

This is now the 2nd occasion in which I own a Honda that has a leaky gas tank. The first time was in 2007 with my 2004 Honda odyssey that began spontaneously leaking gas from a valve in the gas tank. It was repaired. Last week on 09/09/10 I filled my 2008 Honda Civic Hybrid up with gas as normal and by Sunday afternoon it was leaking enough gas to make the smell in the garage unbearable. I took it to the dealership and was informed that the line from where the gas is put in by the user and where it meets the gas tank is defective and has begun leaking. Because this hose is integrated in to the gas tank - Honda is replacing the entire gas tank. I am currently waiting for this repair to be completed - but because it has now happened to me in two separate Honda vehicles I have some concerns about the safety of the gas tanks in the Honda vehicles.
