2016 Chrysler 300 FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

Notified by repair shop that my vehicle is experiencing identical problems with the fuel rail and fuel injector that was recalled for Mercedes in my class and year, but the dealer says my VIN is not applicable currently. Recall campaign number is 2022030003 and NHSTSA ID is 21V961. Was informed by dealer to call customer care at Mercedes, and subsequently informed by Mercedes to fill out this form.

When gas tank is filled with more that 3/4 of a tank of gas, fumes are very strong within the vehicle and around it. This continues until the gas tank has less than 3/4 of a tank of gas. There is a recall for the evap canister on my year, make and model...but my VIN is not included.

Took my car to the dealer to have the fuel pump replaced. Car was repaired and picked up only to have it returned for a fuel leak complaint. Dealership said there was no leak nor evidence of a leak, however, the car is leaking fuel. After my experience I searched for any information on this topic and found others that have had a similar issue with the repair/complaint. This has not been resolved after a call to the dealership owner.

MY 4 YEAR OLD CHRYSLER STARTED GIVING OFF A VERY STRONG SMELL OF FRESH GASOLINE EACH TIME I FILLED UP THE TANK. THE FUMES WERE SO STRONG I HAD THE CAR ON A LIFT LOOKING FOR LEAKS IN THE REAR OF THE CAR. THERE WAS NO VISIBLE LEAKING OF GASOLINE. THE SMELL WAS ALSO SUPER STRONG OUT SIDE OF THE REAR AND SIDES OF THE CAR TO THE POINT OF FEAR OF SOMEONE WALKING BY AND DROPPING A CIGAR AND BLOWING UP FROM THE FUMES. THE SMELL WAS THERE WHILE SITTING AND MOVING. THE DEALER ADVISED ME NOT TO ADD MORE THAN 1/8 OF A TANK OF GAS FROM EMPTY OR THE FUEL WOULD ESCAPE FROM THE CRACK OR HOLE AND CAUSE THE CANCEROUS SMELL. THE TECH AT THE DEALER REPORTED THAT THE FUEL WAS LEAKING AT THE FILLER CONNECTOR.
