Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

I HAVE SCENTED A STRONG, AND WORSENING, ODOR OF GASOLINE IN VEHICLE FOR QUITE A WHILE. I REMOVED BACK SEAT AND FUEL TANK ACCESS PANELS AND INSPECTED THE FUEL PUMPS. DRIVERS SIDE HAD RAW GASOLINE POOLED ON 2124703294 FUEL FILTER ASSEMBLY. I CLEANED THE FUEL UP AND DROVE THE CAR WITH 1/4 TANK OF FUEL AND CHECKED AND FOUND FRESH FUEL LEAKING. I CLEANED AND LOOKED CLOSELY AND FOUND THE SOURCE OF THE LEAK (IT WAS STILL OOZING OUT AFTER VEHICLE WAS PARKED FOR SOME TIME.) THE LITTLE PIPE THAT THE FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR ON NON-AMG VEHICLES PLUGS INTO HAS A HOLE IN IT. I HAVE ATTACHED PICTURES OF THIS SAFETY HAZARD. *TR

Too few reports in this category for a page of its own — they appear in the full complaint list.

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
