Other Fuel System Tank Filling/charging Problems of Mercedes Benz E550

After filling up the fuel tank there is a strong odor of gasoline. I smells inside and outside of the car until the car reaches three quarters of a tank or less. I have read in the Mercedes Benz forums that alot of people are having problems with this! I am driving a ticking time bomb.

After filling the car up full tank you can smell strong odor of gasoline coming from the car.

After filling up my fuel tank completely full, I found that after having my car in the garage for a few hours it had a noticeable odor of gasoline both in the garage and inside the vehicle. This has occurred since my ownership of the vehicle began in March 2012 and is still an issue one year later. Upon further research recently on mbworld. Org, I found out that this was due to a faulty "fuel sender" assembly that was causing gasoline to leak and possibly pool on top of the tank. While there are no visible leaks, I am quite concerned about the gasoline vapors, as this is a known issue on the w211 vehicle and mercedes-benz has thus far refused to pay for any repairs to make my vehicle safe again.
