While the vehicle was parked in my garage, the gas fumes came into my home. The Gas Company was called out and found the smell coming from my Mercedes. I notice a strong smell of gas inside my Mercedes 2011 AMG-CL 65. I also notice the fuel gage decreased after a day. This could have caused a fire. I took the car to Calabasas Mercedes-Benz dealership and was told that this is common, but I see no recalls. After searching I found the 2011 Mercedes recall regarding fuel spill on E-Class, GL-Class, M-Class or R-Class.

Reading this record
No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
