Other Fuel System Tank Filling/charging problems of the 2004 Mercedes Benz CLK500

After filling fuel tank strong smell of gasoline. Other complaints of this nature in your system. Recall already issued for other model Mercedes Benz with same issue.

I smelled gasoline when my two cars were parked in the garage. This occurred only after filling the gas tanks (no topping off. ) I thought it was my 2010 mbz but the dealer checked and found no problem. I had my 2004 mbz checked. The dealer told me I needed a new gas tank, because it was leaking. My car has 80k miles and looks new; garaged, serviced and never in an accident and has no leaks. A new gas cap did not solve the problem. Over three quarters of a tank does not emit any odor, so I don't fill the tank completely. I feel the fumes could be a safety hazard inside a garage containing a hot water heater.
