What owners wrote
Large fuel leak at rear of gas tank above exhaust pipe resulting in an overwhelming fuel smell inside and outside of vehicle. Diagnosed by dealership as cracked return line connection on the fuel pump module. Part was replaced by dealership.
Had to replace fuel pump @ 55,000 miles. According to others, this is a common problem. We had a smell of gas and fumes leaking into our garage for who knows how long...this is where our water heater is!! Could have blown up the house... Ridiculous, this is happening to many, many others.
