While driving I started to smell fuel in the passenger compartment. Upon inspection of the fuel pump, I discovered that the plastic on top of the fuel pump had cracked filling up the top of the fuel tank cover with raw fuel. Some of the fuel had made its way into the passenger compartment while the rest leaked under the car on to the ground. My fear is if this goes undetected, the leaking fuel could make contact with exhaust components and cause a fire. While the fuel was leaking, there were no drivability issues other than the smell of fuel.
