3 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem

Failure Date: 12/10/2010

Around December 2010 I began noticing there has been a gas smell from rear wheel housing and rear seat whenever I fill up the gas tank. I have experienced with various fuel level and concluded that gas smell starts when gas is more than 3/4 full. I have been trying not to fill gas more than 3/4 and have recently changed a delivery unit and all the seals, which have been problematic areas for many mercedes. The gas smell did not go away and I don't feel safe due to the risk of fire in addition to the unpleasant gas smell in the cabin.
