 Description of the problemOver the last few months i have noticed a significant smell of fuel whenever i get in and out of my e55. I had the dealer look it at during my last service a month ago and they said nothing was wrong... I have not noticed any fuel leaking from below the car. After viewing the hundreds of threads and comments on the following 30 pages on a mercedes forum, i decided to have a look for myself: http://mbworld. Org/forums/w211-amg/363759-urgent-notice-03-06-e55-s-were-involved-fuel-sender-recall-bombs. Html when i took off the metal covers on top of the passenger side and driver side sending units i found fresh fuel on top of both units. The passenger was very little. The driver side was significant and squirting out from a plastic nipple that is part of the sending unit. Mercedes refuses to take care of this problem based on the 30+ pages found on the link above. Your organization is aware of this issue, there is even a class action lawsuit against mbna. I will have my vehicle repaired at my own expense by my own mechanic because i don't have the patience to put up with an arrogant service advisor who will surely deny this is was ever a problem on the w211 e55 mercedes. I think its time that your organization force mbusa/mbna to recall these vehicles.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
