FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

 My car has a fuel tank leak and defective fuel sending units. a few days ago i noticed a very strong fuel smell after filling up my car at the gas station. i took my car to the dealership and they said that the fuel tank is leaking and both fuel sending units need to be replaced. i feel that this is a serious safety issue and that mbusa needs to correct the underlying problem and issue a formal safety recall. *tr

WHEELS
04/01/20109000
 My vehicle had 9,000 miles on it and is driven in moderation. one of the rims needed to be replaced because it was cracked - the other 3 are bent. within 1,500 mile, i have learned that the replaced rim is now also bent. i am concerned about the vehicle's saftey while driving at freeway speeds - the car shakes. the manufacturer refuses to replace the wheels stating no defects or recalls have been issued.
