Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problems of the 2010 Mercedes Benz C300

Strong gasoline smell when I fill my tank up and park my car inside my garage. So strong that I worry about explosion due to my water heater with pilot light in the garage. I frequently open the garage door to let the accumulated gas odor dissipate or have to move the car outside. Strong gasoline smell goes away once the fuel level goes down about 1/8 to 1/4. This has been going on since 12/20/2020.

Strong smell of gasoline when tank is filled up. This has been an ongoing issue for a few months now. Don't know much about cars so didn't think much of it until I had a couple of people ask why my car smelled like gas. They let me know that it may be a gas leak somewhere.

The fuel tank have rust cause it to leak, a risk of an engine fire or crash because of a fuel tank issue.

Exactly as described with other models, there was a strong gas odor inside and outside of the vehicle. It worsened after the car was refueled. It got so bad that fumes were seeping into the house from the garage. While driving, all windows had to be down. After researching online, I found out that there was a recall on other mercedes years and models for the same issue. The gas tank gasket is defective. My car is not included in the recall and I must pay to fix the hazardous condition.

Fuel tank leak- smell gas in car and outside car. Received notice of airbag recalls and light issue as well. Main concern is gas smell emanating from my car. This happens mostly when I fill the tank.

Takata recall. After purchasing my 2010 mercedes c-300 I've noticed a gas smell from the rear passenger side but this has gotten worse after I park my car in my garage overnight. The entire garage and vehicle interior smell like gas. I then notice a gas leakage spot from the rear passenger side tire. This happens when I have full tank or half of the tank full of gas. I red about this online I called the dealership but I was told the recall/ extension tank warranty does not apply to my car. Concerning the seat-belt the rear passenger side seat belt is default. It does not buckle.

Our 2010 mercedes C300 with 24,500 miles car started to sell gasoline appx a week ago. We found out that mercedes has similar problems with their other cars and I believe this is a very serious problem since it involves gasoline. The mercedes dealer stated that our car does not have a recall for this problem even though it has the same problem as the other recalled models. The smell is constant and we cannot even park our car in our garage due to the fumes and strong smell. Mercedes of palm spring like to charge us $256 just to look at the car so we took our car to another repair shop and they stated that the fuel tank has a problem as the other models and our car is the 3rd merdeces that they inspected with the same problem that week. At this time mercedes is refusing to repair this on a warranty and as I stated this is a safety issue. I believe this is a very serious safety issue.

The check engine light comes on dealing with the catalytic converter/fuel system. The sensors are off causing the emission of too much gas. The car runs out of gas fast and does not drive well to get good gas miles per tank. The car's exterior lights also go out fast. This should not happen with a top of the line mercedes car.
