Three problems related to other fuel system tank assembly have been reported for the 2015 Mercedes Benz C300. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
This car left me stranded on the side of the road. The car was on working fine driving along then all of a sudden pushing the gas pedal did nothing and the car would not move. The engine shut off completely. The engine was not getting gas. The electrical and everything else was on in the car except the engine. The system in this car has a double fuel tank that only works on one side. The entire fuel system is faulty. The manager at mercedes told me himself that this is a design flaw in this car. There is no reason why a car with 24,000 miles should have broken down on the side of the road because the entire fuel system does not work. Faulty and horrible workmanship on a supposed luxury vehicle.
The vehicle has 67k miles. I noticed a gasoline odor coming from the ac a month ago since then, the odor intensity has drastically increased. The odor usually goes away after a few miles, however, today the odor did not go away and I noticed an onset of a headache since commencing the drive, I then became very drowsy and was very close to rear-ending the vehicle in front of me on the way home, but thankfully the collision warning system emitted a loud sound and I was able to react in time to press the brakes and avoid the collision. There was a recall on 3/10/2015 for vehicles manufactured between April 7, 2014, and July 25, 2014, for an issue with the fuel delivery module and the tank, my vehicle was manufactured January 2015, however, I believe the same issue is causing the gasoline fumes I have been experiencing in my vehicle ac system.
High fumes of gasoline at start up inside cabin and outside of cabin. Smell is usually more present when tank is full or nearly empty however can be present even at half a tank. No codes appear or check engine light is not triggered by problem.
