File date	05/10/12
Component	FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Fuel tank leaking fuel at vent hose in top of tank. The complete gas tank had to be replaced. This was discovered after safety complaint odi number 10476789 was filed outlining another severe gas tank leak. I followed the servicing dealer's instruction for eliminating gas smell from the vehicle by leaving windows open while vehicle was garaged and driving with the windows down following my own instincts for survival. However, the gas smell did not dissipate. I continued to smell gas when i would approach the vehicle; and the gas odor would get stronger the longer the vehicle sat. I took the vehicle back to the dealer and the 2nd leak was discovered, prompting them to replace the entire gas tank. The severe fumes have created allergy and sinus irritation issues for me; and a phobia of driving the vehicle, especially when cigarettes are thrown from vehicles in front of me. I am so afraid that my vehicle will explode with me inside of it... Just imagine!
