Fuel smell lead to fuel leaking

Sep 07, 2022

I been having a fuel smell from under my 2011 LR4 for several months, which is now severe fuel leaking from the fuel tank, and no warning lights. I have contacted Land Rover to report because of the recall campaign, and was told that nothing can be cover under recall until notified or vin appears on recall. I have waiting for recall letters to be send out, don’t want to pay for repair and then have wait for refund of only. I am afraid to drive LR4 because of the fuel leak, don’t want the gas leak to accidentally be spark and cause fire.

THE STEREO SYSTEM HAS HAD COMPLAINTS FOR MANY YEARS WITH NO RECALL. THE ISSUE IS THE SYSTEM CUTS OUT AND UNUSABLE OR COMPLETELY UNRESPONSIVE FORCING CALLS TO BE TAKEN BY PHONE. THIS CAN POSE A SAFETY RISK WITH DRIVERS TROUBLESHOOTING WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE. A SIMPLE GOOGLE SEARCH REVEALS HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS ISSUE. WE HAVE BEEN HAVING THIS ISSUE FOR 2.5 YEARS WITH NO RESOLUTION. SOFTWARE UPDATES DO NOT CORRECT THE ISSUE. PERHAPS THE OEM CAN FIGURE OUT THE KNOWN ISSUE AND SEND CUSTOMERS A SERVICE BULLETIN TO GET THIS SAFETY ISSUE FIXED. OCCASSIONALLY THERE IS ELECTRICAL SMELLS EMANATING FROM DASH.

When I was driving this car, I smelled gasoline very badly, so suddenly the car slammed, and then the car broke down, and there was a lot of white gas or smoke under the hood, I couldn't be sure, so I called The fire alarm was dealt with, then I towed the vehicle to the dealer, contacted my insurance, and the dealer told me there was a recall, but my engine was dead and it wasn't covered by their warranty, but I checked the recall , the reason for the recall may be that the fuel gauge cannot display accurate fuel pressure, which causes the engine to run at high temperature, and the oil cannot cool down, which eventually causes the oil pump body to burst and cause the engine to break down. If I did not contact the fire alarm, this would be a serious event. Fire is even a direct safety accident in driving. I request to report the accident and ask the dealer to bear the repair costs and all losses caused by the accident damage.
