The gas fill pipe leaks gasoline. There is a plastic shield next to it that catches dirt, sand, etc and then keeps the outside of the pipe wet for weeks after any rainy drive. This led to the pipe rusting out and leaking gasoline on the road, driveway and garage.

Vehicle fuel fill tube rotted resulting in a fuel leak. There was a puddle of gas in the garage. The consumer was told that if the tank was kept on 1/2 to 3/4 full, the leak would cease. The mechanic had just fixed the same problem on a Subaru, a week prior and had since repeated that task at least 4 times. The consumer requested that Subaru cover the costs incurred. Also the wiper blades were replaced.
