Two problems related to other fuel system tank assembly have been reported for the 2007 Subaru Tribeca. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Recently, my vehicle was found to have a rusted fuel filler neck. The rusting is toward to "top", well away from road salt and water. The problem is causing fuel fumes to escape, including directly into the passenger compartment. In my case, a full tank of fuel causes the interior fumes to be so strong that the car can not be driven. A search for a replacement filler neck showed the part is on national back-order, leading one to suspect that the problem is common.
Serious, health hazard and a very dangerous problem arise with my smelling gasoline in the interior of car. It happens when tank is full and as soon as it drops to about 3/4 it stops, imagine the tank is full and the fumes are saturated in the car. The smell is overwhelming. Even with the windows cracked. Very very dangerous. Why is there not a recall when on line a large population of people has the problem. Or does a couple cars have to explode with the gasoline issue before a recall is done. This needs immediate attention. Thanks as long as the tank is full it smells whether it is parked or moving. Would be afraid to go on highway for fear of explosion.
