Description of the problem	I have a 2010 audi q5 that is leaking gas on the ground while engine is running while sitting still or driving down the road.. I removed the passenger rear seat which is directly on top of where the leak is coming from. I then removed the access panel for the fuel pump . Gas was sitting on top of the fuel pump in puddles. I decided to start the car with the access panel removed to see where exactly the leak was coming from and how big of leak it was. Upon starting the engine gas sprayed directly out of the top of the fuel pump's white plastic dome top, not the fuel pump flange. Perimeter. It is a large leak, it sprays like a geyser unhindered hitting the top of the access panel and running onto the ground. You can see visible cracks in the top of the fuel pump. My gas mileage which was 21 mpg per tank is now14 mpg on last fill up so my guess is about 7 gallons of gas leaks onto the ground per fill up. I am afraid to drive the vehicle in this condition and the fumes are overwhelming in the cabin of the vehicle and if you roll down the window the smell gets worse... In the pics uploaded you can see the spray and visible cracks.
