| Power Train problems |
My car has been to the dealer no fewer than 4 times for various fuel system related issues. The symptoms of each part failure involve a pervasive gas smell filling the cabin of the vehicle, and gasoline usually pools under the rear seat. The smell is so potent that the car is undriveable, and the pooling of gasoline inside the passenger cabin must be extremely dangerous. The gas tank, fuel senders, fuel pump, charcoal filters, and gasket between the tank and fuel senders have been replaced to no avail. I have had to fight to have this paid for under my existing Mercedes Benz extended warranty. My warranty expires in July of 2013, and I am extremely concerned that this will continue to happen. My most recent dealer visit for this problem was 2 days ago. Nothing was replaced, and they confirmed that oem parts replacements have been used to fix the issue each time. . . Which is a problem because they continue to fail.
