Description of the problem	First incident involved a strong fuel odor coming from interior of car. Took car in to mb dealership and was told that there was a leak that allowed gas to spill out into the car under the rear seats. Also, the fuel pump and sending unit needed to be replaced. That was done at a $1400 cost out of pocket. Within a year, the same problem occurred and needed to be replaced again. The dealership handled the cost on this as the part was under 1 year warranty. Now, within the same year, the same issue has come about. I searched this problem and it seems that their are hundreds of thousands of consumers complaining of the same issue. Mb is needs to fix this issue and take care of the cost. I am not going to pay for the same repair 3 times in a 3 year span. Not to mention the health, enviromental hazard, and potential safety hazard this can cause.
