Tank Mounting problems of the 2001 SAAB 9-3

My SAAB 9-3 convertible began pouring fuel at an alarming rate (more than 1/2 a tank poured out from the bottom-rear). No accident, bump, or road debris was involved. When the car was shut off, the fuel spill stopped. This is clearly a fire-hazard. At the rate it was flowing out, a lit cigarette in the road, a spark from road debris, or other flame source would have lit the car up like an explosive torch. I was also informed by SAAB roadside assistance that the fire department would need to certify the car was ok to tow - and was also told by the weary firefighters that because the leak was not active (the car was turned off) they would not provide certification - which was readily accepted by the roadside assistance leading me to believe they have heard this story before. My service team was familiar with the problem - even predicting it has something to do with a clip near the fuel line & tank that, when it breaks, leads to a flood of gasoline. I await their formal diagnosis. If the service dealers know about this problem - and the apparent scope of it - it seems deploying a plan to correct it would be the reasonable, and safe, thing for SAAB to do. It would be a tragedy to loose a person to this known defect.
