| Description of the problem | I am filing this complaint regarding the fuel smell coming into the cabin. I have owned a 2005 c230 compressor and had the same issue and mb took care of this with no issues. No i have an e320 and they wont fix this issue. After filling up driving with the smell of fuel in the cabin has caused serious headaches for me and my family. Even parking in my garage has filled my whole house with the smell of fuel. I have a 5000. 00 dollar parrot this is very sensitive to smells and this could be a serious affect to everyone's health and safety. If mb can fix this issue on one car why cant they fix it on all cars. |
