| On a few occasions prior to locating a leak, i noticed a gasoline smell. finally when filling earlier this month, i saw a lot of leaking coming out of the fuel filler tube, between the metal tube and the plastic cover surrounding the tube. when i got home, i cut off the plastic tube about halfway and found a static wire running the length of the tube. everywhere, where this wire touched to metal pipe, it was corroded completely through. the static wire is of a different material and was not corroded. presently i have wrapped the tube with a gasoline resistant tape. but, i will have to replace the tube soon. the local dealership has quoted approx. $241.00 without installation. are there other instances like this and is there a recall i'm not aware of. thank you for your time. | |||
