Edge 6-cyl

  • 85,000 miles
The smell of gasoline vapors were detected when ever the vehicle was parked in the garage. We took the vehicle to the Ford dealer ship and it was determined by a Ford technician that the fuel tank is leaking. The fuel tank is a two piece steel design that is welded together at the seem. The welded joint is corroding and caused the leaking. The vehicle has never been in a accident nor has the fuel tank had any maintenance conducted on it. This fuel tank was an oem part and installed by the oem only. Ford has indicated they do not have any replacement parts available, and do not have a supplier to manufacture replacement fuel tanks.

I bought this 2007 Ford Edge new and it has been kept in a garage the entire time I have owned it. I noticed a smell of gasoline while it was in the garage and took it to have it looked at. We found a 2 inch rusted hole in the top of the gas tank. Ford claims no other similar problems have been reported and has refused to do anything about it. Although I have found numerous forums from people that have the same problem. I believe this to be a manufacture defect and a potential fire hazard.
