Fuel/Propulsion System

Filed Aug 5, 201850,000 milesCA

THE FUEL FILTER HAS A CRACK THAT RESULTS IN LEAKING GASOLINE WHEN THE FUEL TANK IS FULL. I FOUND THAT THERE IS A RECALL FOR 2011 GLKS ALREADY IN PLACE FOR THIS ISSUE, BUT OUR GLK WAS BUILT A FEW MONTHS PRIOR TO THOSE REPORTED AS AFFECTED. HOWEVER, I AM CERTAIN THIS IS THE SAME ISSUE WITH OUR VEHICLE BASED ON THE DESCRIPTION OF THAT RECALL. NHTSA ID: 12V557000. IF THERE ARE OTHER SIMILAR ISSUES WITH THE SAME EXACT MODEL YEAR CAR, JUST DIFFERENT BUILD DATES, I BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE COVERED BY THE RECALL. HOWEVER WHEN I CALL DEALERSHIPS WITH MY VIN THEY DENY THAT RECALL EXISTS.

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.

Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
