Description of the problem	In the previous months leading up to march 2012, i, along with my family, started to smell a strong odor of fuel in the interior of our mercedes benz e 350w. The smell was so strong that when riding in the automobile, we had to drive with the windows down fearing of what could happen to me and my family if there was a spark from any part of the engine or underneath the automobile. At a point during that bad experience with that automobile, i could only fill the fuel tank half full without smelling the strong odor of gasoline inside the vehicle. I thought it was now time to get some professional service and advice. In january, 2012, i took my automobile to atlanta classic cars, inc. In duluth georgia 30098. After the first inspection, i was told fuel sending units leak fuel. The next visit, march 2012, both sending units were replaced. Before the next visit, the fuel fumes continued. The next visit, april 3, 2012, the fuel pump was replaced due to intermittent open circuit. The next visit, april 9, 2012; "the team leader found a slight trail of fuel residue which may be where fuel vapors are coming from part of the fuel tank." the next and last visit, april 12, 2012 the fuel tank was replaced. Not trusting the work performed by that dealership and the time it took to find that problem, my wife and i had no other choice but to trade the automobile. Maintaining ownership of that automobile was much too risky and dangerous for my family. Dealing with that dealerships service advisor was much too difficult!!!
