Description of the problem	I purchased my mb c300 used certified and had noticed a fuel smell. I spoke to the dealership and they said it was normal with mb and nothing to be concerned with. I have now had the car for about 5 months and took it to my local mb dealership to find out what is going on with the smell and they said it was a known issue with this make model and year and it is nothing that will cause harm. Well it is now cold outside and the more i use my heat the more the smell comes. I can literally smell gas in my house from the car just being (not on or running) in my attached garage. This is definitely a health issue because i feel like i may pass out if i stay too long in the car with the heat on. Something needs to be done about this besides being told it's a known issue. If its widely known why has there not been a recall on it yet. I also do not understand why my warranty /extended warranty does not apply to this
