1 Tank Assembly problem of the 1998 Mercedes Benz 300

Friday morning - 9:30 a. M. - 4/23/99 I drove from my home (2368 burma hills drive ) to the boys and girls club on michigan avenue. And parked in their parking lot. After I had been there approximately 20 minutes I was notified my gas tank was leaking badly. Withthe help of club employees we secured the area, and put a large container under the vehicle to catch the gas. Aaa was called to tke my vehicle to mcconnell automotive . The manufacturer (mercedes) was contacted and informed and they informed us that the gas tank was not guaranteed against road hazards. I think this completely exposed plastic tank is extremely dangerous, especially since it is on a sports utility vehicle which is advertised for off the road useage. I thinkthe tank should be protected by a steel glide plate. They informed me that I coud not install a protective plate or it would void my vehicle warranty. Frankly I am scared to drive the vehicle now that I see how vulnerable the fuel tank is to damage.
