| Description of the problem | Every time i fill up my mercedes glk 350 with fuel there is a very strong odor of fuel in my garage after i park the car. There is no visible leak of fuel on the garage floor or notification of any issue on the dashboard. The strong fuel order goes away after driving the car and burning off a gallon or so. This is a serious safety and health issue that started few weeks ago and is of a big concern to me and to my family. |
