Description of the problem	The fuel sensor failed, resulting if fuel leaks. There are many reports and mercedes denies the problem. Amazing that such a big safety issue is being ignored and denied by mercedes. This is so prevalent, in a pretty rare car, that my dealer stocks the repair parts. Even my service adviser was surprised they did. In reading mercedes' response to the investigation, it is almost a joke. They claim that since this isn't directly related to the recall, there isn't an issue. That make absolutely no sense. Perhaps it isn't related to the recall, but you have 50+ complaints for a car where around 1,500 were imported. Estimating 1 in 10 people actually complain that means that 1/3 of the cars have the problem. If it is 1 in 20, than 2/3rds have the problem. At $1000+ to fix, mercedes is making a ton of money on their failure.
