Description of the problem	After filling up the vehicle and driving for a short period of time ,i parked the car in my garage . When i came back to the car the whole garage smelled like gasoline. After further inspection gas was leaking from the fuel sending unit. I went to the dealer and asked for assistance with the repair due to the fact that the car has always been serviced by mercedes and was denied any financial help with the repair. This is clearly a defective fuel sending unit and possible gag tank failure that mercedes should repair as a warranty claim but they are refusing to take responsibility .
