Tank Assembly problems of the 2003 Mercedes Benz E55

Strong odor of gasoline in the interior of the car after filling the tank. Odor has persisted for a week. Refer to NHTSA action number pe12001.

Each time I fill the vehicle with gasoline, especially until the tank is full, I have a very strong fuel smell inside the vehicle. This always happens on a full tank, and the less fuel I have the problem seems to go away. Most likely a leak of fuel into the interior of the vehicle. Ref: NHTSA action# pe12001.
