2007 mercedes benz e350 noticed strong fuel/gas odor inside car after filling up gas tank and would subside after gas tank was approximately 3/4. My children & I had to roll down the windows while driving due to feeling nausea. This has occurred often for weeks. Last thursday on 8/7/14 I was driving vehicle coming to a signal light at an intersection and the car started shaking like is was loosing power, then it shut off in the middle of the street at the intersection.
