While driving vehicle leaked fuel. When this occurred the brake pedal became hard and failed to stop vehicle when the pedal was depressed, resulting in a rear end crash. Consumer sustained minor injuries. Vehicle was towed to the dealership, and dealership only repaired the body parts damaged by the crash. However, dealership indicated it couldn't find any leak. When the consumer picked up the vehicle from the dealership there was smoke coming out from under the hood.
