Description of the problem	I filled the fuel tank and parked the vehicle in my garage. A couple of hours later i went into the garage and discovered a strong gas smell. I immediately contacted the gas company and told them i suspected a gas leak. The technician came out and tested the appliances in the garage. After the appliances tested negative the technician surmised that the smell was possibly emitting from my vehicle. The following day i took the vehicle into the mercedes benz dealer and was advised that there was a fuel tank leak. The service advisor gave me a very costly estimate for the repairs. I elected to have the vehicle repaired at a private mechanic. Unfortunately the issue was not completely resolved and the vehicle still emits a fuel smell when the tank is full. I am disappointed that the dealer did not admit that this was a manufacture issue and offer to make the repairs without cause. I feel this is a safety concern.
