With over a quarter of tank of gas the automobile was parked on a decline. The front of the automobile was lower than the rear of the automobile. After getting back into the automobile after being away for about an hour and a half, the automobile would not start. The low fuel light was on and at that decline the automobile could not use the quarter of tank of gas available. I had to walk over a mile to get another two gallons and put it into the automobile which then allowed it to start. This is unacceptable behavior for an automobile with that much gas in the tank.

Dt: the consumer is a canadian resident. When the consumer exited the vehicle, he smelled gasoline. The consumer had the engine turned off and inspected underneath the vehicle and discovered fuel was pouring from the gas connection pipe that goes into the tank. The sealant was plastic as well as the tank. The consumer immediately drove to a local GMC dealer about two to three kilometers away and spoke to a mechanic there regarding the matter. The mechanic inspected the leak and noted this was a common problem and the sealant connector had broken or cracked allowing a fuel leak. There was no guard whatsoever around this connector piece. The vehicle originally had a full tank and at this time it was half full when the consumer arrived at the GMC dealership. The consumer was concerned about a potential ignition source for the leak. The dealership has ordered a new gas tank for which the consumer has to pay for because gm notes this was something other than a safety defect. The consumer is concerned the same plastic fittings are going to be replaced on the vehicle. The failure mileage was 37,000 kilometers, current kilometers is 37,000 as well. The vehicle was purchased new.

I have a 2005 Chevrolet Venture Mini van that has developed a fuel leak around the area where the filler tube connects to the fuel tank. Having researched this, it is apparent that this has been a problem for these vehicles as early as 2003. This the third time this has happened on my van. I have attempted to repair it twice, using an epoxy sealer,but the leak redevelops after a few days. I might have to replace the fuel tank and filler tube, if I can find one that I can afford. Gm says that this is not defect and will not issue a recall, but it seems that just the idea of fire hazard would be enough reason for gm to fix the problem. I do not see how gm can not say that this is not a defect in the design, since this has occurred a number of time. It's a plastic side mounted tank with no protection surrounding it and a filler tube that joins it in a very vulnerable area.
