We just bought this car. After I filled it up, there is strong gasoline smell in the garage. Parked the car outside and it still has smell. Is this a common problem with Mercedes Benz C280? upon further research, there was extended warranty from mercedes to cover e class and cls class fuel odor only. What about the c class cars? don't believe this is the way the car should be performing. By the way, the car is 2007 with 102k miles. I believe mercedes should also cover c class for the same problem,.

Strong gasoline ordor coming from left rear wheel well every time the car is refueled. The strong ordor lingers on for 2-3days filling the garage and house with fule ordor. Seems to be the same problem as e class, which is under an extended warranty for the fuel ordor issue. Mb service rep said that c class vehicles are not covered by the extended warranty and owners are responsible for the cost of repair.

Strong gas odor in garage & house. This occurs after filling up car and parking car in garage overnight.

After filling the vehicle with fuel, a strong odor of gasoline fills the garage when the vehicle is parked inside after fueling. The odor of gasoline is so strong that I feel it is unsafe to park the vehicle inside the garage because of the fumes, and the potential for fire or explosion.
