The vehicle did not pass inspection showing a small fuel leak. I noticed a smell of fuel odor coming from outside parked vehicle and noticed a leak coming from underneath the vehicle as well. It appears to leak the most when the gas is full. The vehicle was taken to a certified mechanic who diagnosed that the fuel leak with the fuel pump. The certified mechanic informed the contact that their failure was related to NHTSA campaign number 12V557000 (fuel system, gasoline). I contacted park place Mercedes of grapevine, tx, phone number 843-815-0300) who informed me my vehicle was not included in the recall. The vehicle had not been repaired as of yet. The approximate failure mileage was 56,000. This issue seem to be wider than the initial recall sample. This is very dangerous.
